Very much so. Jenner had him fooled twice (including right after the Gallagher goal) and got the post on one and whiffed on the other. Columbus had some other posts as well, I believe. Primeau certainly played well but had some good luck along the way too.

I saw Pronman's rankings, he obviously likes the defensemen in this draft as many others do. I think because there is no obvious BPA after #1 many teams will draft based on need.

Not necessarily. This plight of the PP for a few years now is only having a single threat, Weber and now Caufield. PKs neutralized the PP by dedicating a player to that threat. With another threat on the other side of the ice the PK can’t dedicate a player to stoping the left circle one-timer. If they do, they risk being flat footed on the PK, beaten down low or opening the slot. All of which create more threats, which open up Caufield again. It’s how all good PPs function. The more threats on the ice, the more open the biggest threat ultimately becomes.

It was good for the first 5 minutes. After that, it can only be viewed as good if you are huge Primeau fan.
