2017 NHL Draft: Fear the Fin staff discusses Sharks draft

The San Jose Sharks had a very busy Draft. There were reaches, potential steals, and plenty of (small) trades. Sierra asked some pressing questions after the Draft, and five of us did our best to answer.

Do you think the Sharks drafted the best available player with each selection?

East Bay Ry: Ask me again in five years. If you want my opinion today, then the answer is clearly no. In the first round, Yamamoto, Tolvanen, and Kostin all appear to be better prospects than Norris.

Evan Arnold: The Sharks did deviate from the central scouting rankings and go off the board for their first-round pick.
