They were loaded.   They never had the FO vision on what to do with all the talent.   Eichel and Reinhart are now NHL Super Stars on other teams.   

They've drafted ten top-10 players who are still active in the NHL/AHL and only one is considered a true bust (Nylander). Risto is not good, he's a 6/7, but he's played 700 games, so... not entirely a bust. Quinn and Savoie are still too young to say for sure, but Quinn has already outscored Nylander in fewer games played.

That to preface... they have five top-10 draftees on their roster and (one of them) Byram was acquired via trade for Mitts.

The high-end fruit of the tank was acquired... and then half of it was sent away.

All the best teams have multiple really good players that weren't top 10s. And the best teams high draft picks actually live up to their draft positions.

Dahlins not a #1... Maybe a #3 or #4 level player from a good draft year. Power is maybe a #8 or worse. It boils my blood that anyone that big could be that damn soft. Unless something drastically changes, he'll always be the guy hugging JT Miller's leg.

Hamilton was on GR this morning and stated that Tage was walking with a limp yesterday and that Muel had a brace on his leg

He’s listed upper body. Not sure why he’d be limping

I thought I heard lower body the other day also....not on an official report, but someone said 'lower body' during the game when he got hurt
