[Chace McCallum] If you cloned Zach Benson and he was eligible for the 2022 NHL draft, do you believe he should he have gone first overall?

Should, not would, if you believe those differ

>[I think that’s pretty fair tbh. From this class I’d have taken: Bedard, Michkov, Fantilli, Carlsson and Smith first overall in 2022 and above Benson. Then Reinbacher / **Benson are the two in a tier that could have been worth of the 1OA pick in 2022** but idk either way.](https://twitter.com/CMhockey66/status/1708513348092875126)
Shows how strong this most recent draft class was, how relatively weak the 2022 draft was, and how fortunate the Sabres were that Benson fell to them.
Slafkovsky pick also hasn’t aged that well. His value surged right around the draft
No, no way he’s still going before Bedard or fantilli
Jesus we’re hyping this guy lol
He would be the first clone eligible for the draft so it’s hard to say. Some teams might get hung up on that and might want a natural born human.
Let’s play at least 1 regular season game before we get too hyped up
Yea
It should have been at the time, and would be now, Logan Cooley.
