Brendan Ranford showed the "offensive ability" in the WHL and doesnt even have a contract.

What?
Simmonds best year in juniors was a 1.32 ppg. Noebels never hit a ppg in juniors.
What does Ranford have to do with anything. The Flyers drafted Mathers over Hyka. Does that make Mathers the better talent?
