An NHL scout who is a friend of mine said Ottenbreit is head and shoulders above what Nogier has ever been, and younger to boot. Bottom line is we don't know what this 2nd pick will turn out to be, but we do know what we gave up for him. Will be interesting to come back to this trade and draft pick in the future as see how it turns out.
