Jensen and Kassian are both in different ways out of favor with the front office. They've commented publicly about their issues with them. Clearly not the building blocks going forward. Jensen looks just as likely to never make it as he is too make it at best.
Virtanen and Jensen can also both play LW. And there's a very easy case to make that Virtanen is better on the left side.
Drafting by position is how you end up with no NHL talent in your system. To be a successful franchise long term taking the BPA is an absolute must.
Not everyone makes it, players get traded, team needs change, and lots of players can change position. Drafting for positions is not only dumb, it's self destructive.
