Seems to be that all the uncertainty can be traced to the unattractiveness of PG. I've read at least three top players that are believed to have no interest in reporting to PG which would result in a trade or PG going off the board with their pick.

Yep I also just read somewhere (WEHP/ or HF) that Quennville may not go either (to PG). His older Bro was drafted to PG and never returned for a second WHL camp and is headed NCAA. Don't know what PG will do, maybe try to get Barzal??? It doens't sound llike hes to keen on Seattle.....unless Seattle takes Fabbro then maybe they both go to Seattle.... Who the heck knows.
Everyone seems to be down on Quenneville's height but he doesn't play like a little *****. He's fairly thick.
You mention the Barzal and Fabbro connection but is there not a connection with Estephan and Quenneville playing together with SSAC a season ago? That might be interesting to think about from a Canes perspective.

Yes there is the SSAC connection, I think last year Qville won top D man in AB as a first year player which is remarkable. I dont know if Qville can play that way against bigger/ stronger players. There dones't seem to be a lot of high end players with size in this draft so it may be a good reason to overlook the size factor as well.
So many variables are in play with NCAA threats and past unreported high picks and franchises that are historically mismanaged that nothing seemed diffinitive at all. Mix in what seems to be MJ's Howden connection and predictions can be tossed out the window.
Barzal, Gropp, Alex Forsberg, Seattle, PG, ... Alot of moving parts. The only thing that seems to be a sure thing is Vancouver choosing Benson.
Whoever ends up with Clague is going to be a winner IMO. That kid is the real deal.
