Thread: Re-Drafting 2017 (1st Round Only)
Dallas would 100% pick Heiskanen over Suzuki, it isn’t even a debate. Miro is a top 10 league wide defensemen while Suzuki is great 2C.

And that last statement is ridiculously false, if you remove Miro and add Suzuki, they don’t beat Calgary in 2020 and don’t even make the playoffs this year. Miro during the bubble was ridiculously good, he was on par with Makar this year in the playoffs, if Dallas would’ve won the cup, he would’ve 100% won the Conn Smythe. Suzuki wouldn’t even be Dallas’s first line centre.

Only player in this draft class that Dallas would pick over Heiskanen is Makar.

And no, picking Miro over Makar isn’t Dallas’s biggest regret, and it’s far from it. Sure Makar might be better than Miro, but not by as much as people like to think. On top of having Miro, they also got Robertson plus Oettinger in that draft. They got a franchise forward, defensemen, and goalie, they’re far and away the winners of this draft.
