From where the preds picked I think they had a great draft. I think Farrance was a steal where he was selected and I expected Tolvanen to go in the top 20. Mismash is probably a few years away but will be a player.

Do you think the Preds would have been better keeping Seth Jones ? or better with Ryan this Season?

You saw our center depth at the end of our playoff series vs the Ducks.

You saw our defensive depth as well.

Don't know how you ask that question.

Had to give up Jones to get Johanson. Simple as that. I'd say oir d-corp is pretty solid
Need to fill on the holes at forward.

maybe if the D was a little better it could have been more 1 to 0 zero games instead of 6 or 7 to zero

In the last couple of games against the Penguins you really saw that they missed a true #1C. I don't think it matters a lot but the Predators were in need for a #1C and they are just much less strong without. With Johansen they would have had a much better shot for sure.

Btw this is also one of the reasons that Columbus got dealt with pretty easily by the Penguins.

That was a steal getting Tolavin at 30th. He was one of the players I was hoping the Blues would snatch up.

Shoot they were also missing Fiala who is a top line player in my book. Missing both of those guys certainly had to hurt.
