Luke Schenn
26 June 2008
and third round pick in order to move up two spots to pick a stay-at-home defenseman by the name of Luke Schenn fifth overall. I support this pick completely, as it seems the Blue and White have been sorely lacking some defensive prowess for a long time. Name just about any blueliner that played for the Leafs this year, and he probably leans to the offensive side of the game. Well, there's Andy Wozniewski, but he doesn't really lean either way. Kaberle, Kubina, Colaiacovo, White, McCabe, Stralman...all offensive minded. Sure, it'd be nice to have a Dion Phaneuf-type who can excel at both ends of the rink, but I'll refer you to the previous lack of first-rounders in Toronto's stable.
