How can you guys hate on this pick? From what I've read he's very mobile and very good offensively, something our D lacks right now. Not only that but he has an older brother who has gone through the process of becoming a great NHL defenseman which will only help him. Also take it for what it's worth but Subban said he'll be better than him. Once he bulks up a bit and polishes his defensive game he should become a solid pick for where we got him.

Quiz: how many 5'9" defenders are in the NHL? Why not just give the pick to someone who can use it? Oh, Utica can use it cuz it won't ever be in the NHL.

It's the one reason why 30 GMs passed on him 3 times, and 23 passed on him 4 times. It's a perfectly realistic and understandable worry. And knowing his position, and his size is 'something', not 'nothing' about the player.

Because things tighten up significantly in the playoffs.

Players aren't having 2 and 3 point games at the rate they do in the regular season. Especially D-men.

The fact that the Bulls made it to game 7 of the Eastern Finals with Subban as their top D-man says that he played pretty good.
