UGH! Don't remind me of that draft.

Supposedly the Oilers were going to take Sergachev but when the Finnish GM knew he'd be a bust and dropped to the Oilers, they took him. What could have been.

Tkachuk, Keller, Sergachev, McAvoy, Thompson, even Chychrun would have been a better pick than JP.

Nobody had Jesse less than 3. Maybe one publication. He was neck and neck with Laine most of the year IIRC. They can't be faulted for that pick.

The Canucks on the other hand - that one hurts. Juolevi wasn't exactly a Niinimaki level reach, but he had fallen off quite a bit I think on most rankings, and Keller and Tkachuk were there for the taking.
