Stankoven is also a rookie. I don't think it's fair at all to base your expectations on Catton off how a rookie is performing in the playoffs. I also think Point completely disproves any notion that size is a must
Point isn't a good point to be made. No pun intended. haha. The exception doesn't make the rule. This is the same logic as telling young people that it's easy to make millions on YouTube and OF.
They'll always be outliers in life, that doesn't mean those outliers speak truth.
Claiming guys like Marchessault and Point are the trend is incorrectly stated. Those are players you can rely on, today! Correct.
BUT drafting to find your Point in every draft is flimsy thinking as you'll make a great living in a market where only the top 0.01% are somewhat wealthy.
It's simple math. Catton is going to be passed over because of size issues much like Caufield. It's the package.
Now was Caufield a bad pick? Of course not. But I doubt Montreal wants another Caufield at this point, no pun intended. haha
But teams clearly have a type in certain drafts and build their teams accordingly, we've seen this year over year.
Now. That is a trend that we can follow and predict as fantasy managers.
