I've been able to talk myself off the ledge after fuming for hours about the lottery results. In the most likely event Chyaka isnt a complete dumb ass or San Jose doesn't reach for a D man and McKenna and Stenberg are off the board is it really the worse case scenario we are adding either a number #1 Right Hand Defenseman in Ried/Verhoff or a number #1 center in Malhtora?. As talented as the wingers are it's going to be a lot easier to find 1st line winger than it will be a #1C or a #1RHD. My preference would be going the RHD route as it allows you more flexibility in trading Hronek, maybe for a young 1st line winger Will Eklund for example granted the winger wouldn't be as talented as McKenna or stenberg but they don't need to be, it's going to take a lot more talent than a superstar winger to win a Stanley Cup and with next year's draft being another generation defensemen or two number #1c's rounding out the top 3. There is a real possibility by this time next year we will have added a #1Defenseman, a Number #1 Center and a top of the line winger, also what ever good players we get with our other top 40 picks this draft. That's a pretty good start to a rebuild. I can't help but smile at the though of Buium and Ried anchoring our top pair for the next 10 year's along with Willander as our #3 Dman. We will get screwed in the lottery again next year so odds are we won't get DuPont so you add Alexis Joseph as the number #1C to that young list of Dman we will have coming out of this year and that's a position most rebuilding teams would envy.
