Even in the 1st round, Murray has the ability to take a real shot on a risky player and hope The Sens turn him into a star. Tons of time to develope him with the right team in Bingo, doesnt matter who it is. Im not advocating picking a guy like McFarland because like ASQ said, he's a Spezza clone, but he can defently be developed over time and perhaps develope an edge that he never thought he had. Just an example. Even Skinner, let him grow a bit and fill out his frame, he could come in behind Spezza in 3 years and put up points right off the bat.
I would say McFarland is the anti-Spezza TBH. Average during the season, awesome during tournaments.
