Time will tell who is the real winner though. Tampa is going to be a beast this year if they can mesh well. |
$5 M/yr...................that's too much I think. They just spent everything they traded away in Boyle (essentially).
Kuba/Picard are both good players (Kuba easily takes over Mez's spot right now) and Picard is a good, young D that can eventually be part of the top 4. The pick is a crapshoot at this point, even if it very high.
Mez on the other hand is part of the top 4 right now, and has the potential to be a #1 or #2, down the road. I think Ottawa wins on the basis of having 3 decent players, instead of 1 really good player (assuming everyone, including the pick hits their potential) for ~ the same price.
