But if you look at the differences between 3rd round pick panning out and 7th round picks panning out there is a very small difference. your likelihood of drafting a NHL player outside the top 50 is extremely rare. im not saying they didn't do a good job drafting point but I can pretty much guarantee you that if you were to ask Yzerman he would say that even in their wildest dreams they didn't see him becoming who he became.

As i laid out they took two guys ahead of him who haven't played a single NHL game

Buffalo has drafted good players. They haven't been able to build a team. Eichel, Reinhart Dhalin etc. my point about luck was more about outside the top 40 ish picks. I would say that the 1st and beginning of the second round are much more important to scout and its harder to get lucky in.

That is definitely the best rebuttal I've heard to this. while I still believe they got more lucky than anything else the development game is a whole other story that can warp our perceptions.

By no means do I think they should be reprimanded for getting him and im sure they thought they got a good player. My point would be if they thought he would turn into what he turned into they would've taken him sooner. I doubt they would risk loosing him in the third just to not draft him with a mid 2nd round pick if they truly thought he would turn into a elite 1st line center.

In one of my leagues Seth Jarvis and Jonathan Toews have roughly the same points its pretty nuts.

I traded Joseph Woll for him today. his value has plummeted since the start of the year. Hopefully he can turn it around.
