I always like reading those type of what if articles..Id like to see one for Larsson too. Looking back at that draft I gotta think he would still put rank at 5. Figure a lot of people would rank Landeskog and Huberdeau over Nugent Hopkins.
At 4 its probably a tossup between Strome and Dougie Hamilton.
hamilton has been solid so far. larsson though just seems a tad slow.
it was the game against the jets he got beat to the outside on an empty net goal it looked like he wasnt even skating. he didnt even try to take the body or anythign the guy just took him to the outside.
I'm just pointing out that young defensemen have good and bad moments. We're just not seeing the consistency with Adam yet. He was never projected to have amazing speed. I'm sure they're having him work on skating each off season and his hockey sense will get better too. The key is having him paired with a good skater.
