I don’t get why anyone would want us drafting a forward #3 overall.
We already have 4 PROVEN top 6 caliber forwards. We already have a true 1C and 2C, not to mention arguably the best winger in the NHL.
How many PROVEN top pairing defenseman do we have?
You could argue we have none
Byram is the obvious choice, we need to upgrade the defense and add a player that projects as a top pairing Dman before we add another forward.
Not even debatable if you ask me.

Interesting perspective and a good argument.
Its official now (even though we all knew) whomever they pick, part of the board will be "Stan's a genius", while the other part is "Stan you freakin moron, someone fire this guys already!"
