Definitely a North American bias to the drafting, not one European. Not necessarily a bad thing but you have to draft for need and BPA. Jets shot themselves in the foot by not drafting this guy in the 3rd round (ranked #31 in the draft and he was still there 70). Oilers say thanks to Cheveldayoff for leaving him for them.

Just imagine if we had Couturier and Filip Forsberg in the Jets lineup next year. 2 goalies in the same draft also leaves me shaking my head a little.

Perceived talent does not win championships... ask LA and New Jersey. Look at the previous dynasty of Edmonton... all 3rd, 4th and beyond rounders. Edmonton better get the cup in the next few years or the finicky Edmonton faithful will change their tunes and Tambellini will continue to have the "honour" of picking 1st overall for years to come. Who wants to lay bets that Tambellini will trade for Luongo? Do they have a trophy for worst GM?
