On this episode, we talk about Corey Pronman's articles about how he would re-draft the 2017 and 2018 seasons. The articles have been linked here if you want to follow along (it is the Athletic so it might be behind a paywall), but we talk about his rankings out loud as well.
Topics discussed.
2017 Re-Draft (2:00):

Is Petersson a top tier/elite centreman?

Makar is the best from the draft

Why are Necas and Hischier ranked lower than Nick Suzuki?

Tie was right about Drake Batherson

Is Casey Mittelstadt a top 15 pick?

Connor Timmins, Robert Frost, Nolan Patrick, Kailer Yamamoto, Mario Ferraro, Ryan Poehling, and more

2018 Re-Draft (33:00):

Andre Schvenikov is elite and the #1 pick

Rasmus Dahlin is not an elite player from the draft... but who's fault is that?

Quinn Hughes should be #2

Farrabi is a high quality pick

Evan Bouchard is ranked too low

Ty Smith is better than Rasmus Sandin
