Spence was a 4th round pick. so a 1st and a 4th? yeah, I think he could fetch a little bit more than that.

He was a 4th round pick in 2019...his draft status as of now should mean nothing, rather look at how he's developed. Simply calling him a 4th round pick is a bit reductionist

Come on, don't act like you've seen the kid play enough to compare him to anyone, only thing they have in common is the round they were selected in, anyone with an internet connection can tell you that, doesn't make you a professional scout.... and on a side note, Chiarot was a 4th round pick

Not all 4th round picks make it to the AHL and produce that high. At some point you can't say "it's a X round pick" when the player proved he can play.

Enough with chasing size over skill...I've seen wayyyyy too many Habs teams that lack scoring skills compared to their peers

Hockeydb has him at 180 lbs. Most listed measurements for players are old or from around their draft time

I don't give a poop what round in was drafted in, small dmen need to have exceptionnal talent to succeed in this league and I highly doubt that it is the case with a 4th round pick. unlike Makar and Hughes btw.
