But Burns has the size on Subban.
The thing is when the San Jose Sharks traded for Burns, it was when the draft was slated, so the teams knew which pick they were trading. Furthermore, none of the prospects that Minnesota got were going to be as good as Burns' potential still. Coyle came the closest but Burns was a franchise defenseman. Coyle could be a solid top 6 power forward and is an excellent prospect.
The thing is Dumba could be as good or even better than Subban and for me, that doesn't work.
