As much as we all enjoy using first round picks on defensive players known for their truculence, hard work & being wicked smaht, I’m just going to assume that they see a bunch of untapped offensive & puck-moving potential for this kid.
After all, Cowan only had 20 goal & 53 points in 68 games in his draft year.
So I’m cool with this selection, until we see evidence to the contrary.
They drafted for need there. Clearly. You're doing the right thing, trust his plan. Didn't know Tre would be deferring the decision.The stat profile is shit but there's nothing more I love than a d that is an elite skater and that's what Joey Danforth is. At the very least it gives him a high floor. Skating + IQ makes me comfortable he'll make the jump at some point. The old beautiful skater version of TJ Brodie would be delightful as his upside. Or Matty "Rolls Royce" Roy. I'll take it.

I like the move down to give Wes an extra pick.
