My Take
Jake Sanderson interests me precisely because he's unfinished. Drafted fifth overall in 2020 and anchoring Ottawa's blue line as a defenseman, he plays the position I quietly love, the one whose best work is making opposing offenses disappear. There's something fitting about a kid from snowbound Whitefish, Montana carrying that calm, defensive temperament. At 188 cm with dual American and Canadian roots, he has the tools and the bloodlines, but it's the trajectory that excites me. I'd rather watch a player full of upside grow into greatness than admire someone who has already peaked.
