My draft for this is coming up quickly. With McDavid and Eichel, my roster currently looks like this, and I still have the next pick to use (1 = McDavid, 2 = Eichel, 3 = ?):

This league is on Yahoo, and I lost LW eligibility for Lee (for now?), so the LW has suddenly become a weak spot. Do I still go with my initial thought and draft a D (Pouliot) in anticipation of next off-season when I likely cannot retain all of Barrie, Vatanen, and Byfuglien, or do I go for a young top prospect at LW, such as Ehlers?
Or do I do something entirely different?
