Re: Ranking vs. current year draft - REP
Those are all quality players that are playing NHL games. I have a hard time ranking anyone that hasn't sniffed an NHL rink ahead of them. Many a prospect has been hyped in a draft year to be better than X percent of his piers but I would say that fails to come to fruition more often than it does. When it does happen it's usually over the course of several seasons during which time all of the listed players will be producing at or above that level. Bedard is the only one I would argue for being equal to or worth more than any one of those players. If these were depth players or prospects that are struggling I could argue that buying another ticket might be a better choice but all of those players have looked like they're going to be great for the foreseeable future.
So for me it's:
Maybe Bedard (meaning the pick is guaranteed to get me him)
All of those players
everything else
To me it boils down to; do I want 5k in my hand, or a chance to win 10k. I'll take the 5k.
