Tarasenko or Price.. Oh wait
Picking Dunn over over an aging, injury prone player that has to be traded was a good pick.
The best player Vegas picked was MARCHESSAULT, not counting Fluery. The rest of their picks where guys you never heard of again and few Karlsonns that no one could have predicted, or Neal who career was about to drop of a cliff.
The only ‘star’ pick Seattle missed was JVR, the rest of the bigger names where boat anchor contracts.
Seattle fucked up by not picking several serviceable bottom line type players and took total random AHLers or a guy like Cal Foote, Tampa had to pay someone to take Gourde anyways to clear cap.
They left themselves with the most valuable assest in today’s NHL, cap space , then never did anything with it. And I don’t mean signing UFAs , trading for some bad contracts and getting assests.
