Much like the #9 prospect on this list, Jakub Zboril is going to be overshadowed by expectations for most of his NHL career.
While not quite as bad as the grief given to the Bruins for selecting Zach Senyshyn, Zboril’s name frequently brings out the “WHAT ABOUT BARZAL?????” people among us.
Unlike Senyshyn, Zboril was selected right around where he should have been, but it doesn’t matter. It’s been six years since he was drafted, and it’s about time the Bruins cash in on the high pick.
