Keith Verhoff's playing guys that are 24, 25 a lot throughout the season.

So now seeing him against 18-year-olds, you're like, ah, this is the guy that we remember.

This is the guy that

we think can be a true top end defenseman in this draft class where at the world championships, you're going to see a guy like McKenna or Ivar Stenberg and possibly Viggo Bjork and Albert Smith push themselves against men.

And a lot of times against men that are in the NHL.

So we're going to get a preview of how a guy like McKenna handles a top end NHL defenseman that's playing for his country.

So,

It's a part of the factor, but I think you have to take the whole season as a whole and not let these tournaments get you too high or too low.

I think ideally, hypothetically, we all love the idea of a trade down.

I would love to see the trade down at three because it does make a lot of sense.

Some other team is going to be absolutely head over heels with Albert Smiths or Keaton Verhoff or Carson Carls or whoever.

And if Vancouver can move down three, four or five spots, still get their guy and come away with a bit of a haul, then I think they're going to be happy with that.

But we always talk about these trade downs and all these situations.

And the reality is they just don't happen that often.

Like Vancouver, the market itself loves a good trade down or trade up and all these different things.

We know the Sadeen story at the draft, but it just doesn't happen that often.

So as much as I would love to be like, yeah, that's, that's the go-to if you're at number three,

it's probably not going to happen.

We're probably going to see them go and get their guy there anyways.

Yeah, I look at Morozov and I'm just like, that's a meat and potato center.
