Not really a fan of pairing Chayka and Tulksy. I think it leans too heavy on analytics. One of them paired with someone else with more of a hockey background though I would be all for. I believe the best move is to balance analytics with just general knowledge of drafting/what intangibles we need.

I feel like Chayka specifically has both. Likely they both do as just generally smart guys. It’s not like they arnt going to have a team of veteran pro scouts. That said I can understand the concern

Fair. For me Dubas is top, which I still think is a possibility. After that I think Chayka or Botterill as POHO and then Darche as GM would be my pick.
