Welcome back! With the NHL resuming play, we’ve had a fair amount to distract us from the overwhelming prospect coverage we’ve seen as a community over the past year. It’s been a welcome break.
Our reprieve only lasted for a few weeks, with the Senators starting the season so poorly that the community sounds prime for a check-in. That’s where we come in. Every month, we’ll be sharing some key storylines to watch for as we follow the 2021 NHL Draft. Similar to our Five Thoughts column, we’ll pick a couple of topics to delve into a bit deeper — giving you information to ponder on and contextualize our detailed player profiles later in the year.
