Don’t want to pump KL’s tires too much, but this kid has to go top 15 in a re-draft right? Out-scoring Glass and Suzuki with much less help (plays with 2 younger kids in Topping and Foote). 

Nah. Glass and Suzuki are more skilled than Lind. Plus they play more important positions.

 

There is a reason people were surprised/mad that Glass and Suzuki were left off Team Canada for World Juniors. Lind didn't get the same reaction

That's more draft pedigree imo. People were shocked a 6th overall and 13th overall was cut from the team.

 

Lind definitely has the same skill level as Glass. Lind's PPG is more impressive. Agreed about position which gives Glass the slight edge.

 

Suzuki is a bit better than both though in terms of pure natural talent IMO.

 

Overall, to get a talent like Lind at pick 33 is huge. Keep your draft picks especially 2nd rounders. No more trading them away, please.

FWIW I think Suzuki is naturally very skilled but many smaller guys are.  Hopefully he's large enough but he also plays small which won't help him translate his game.  Glass is a solid all-round player and was a safe pick.  However Lind plays a hard nosed game and has some real skill which makes him the most tantalizing prospect in my mind.
