Yup. Very happy with this new approach. Better than the guaranteed 3rd liners and over-agers that seem to have become the norm.
The Nucks have nicely re-stocked actually (sucking for a few years sure helps). They have a top 10 (maybe top 5) prospect pool now and have some nice pieces at each position:
C: Petterson, Gaudette
W: Boeser, Dahlen, Virtanen (hopefully this year is a bit better...), Lind
D: Juolevi, Subban, Brisebois (weakest on the blueline -- hurts to have lost the big Russian dude too).
G: Demko, DiPietro
It's not the Flyers or Wild, but it's looking a heck of a lot better than it has in awhile.
