ROUND 1 | TEAM | ORIGINAL | PLAYER | DETAILS |
---|
1 | - | The greatest goal scorer in the history of the game. The greatest Russian to ever play. | ||
2 | - | The second greatest Russian to ever play. | ||
3 | - | Blake Wheeler (+2 ) | Took awhile for him to fully blossom, but in the late 2010s, Wheeler was truly the greatest power forward the game had to offer. | |
4 | Mike Green (+25 ) | His offense was always fantastic, as he was the best offensive defenseman in the league from like 2008-2010. | ||
5 | - | Cory Schneider (+21 ) | If Schneider didn't play on the mid-2010s Devils, he'd be more appreciated and loved. | |
6 | - | Alexander Radulov (+9 ) | If Radulov didn't go to the KHL TWICE he'd be more appreciated as a premier 70 point player. His fall off has been insane though. | |
7 | - | Travis Zajac (+13 ) | The model of consistency in the NHL. Could always rely on Zajac for 40 to 50 points a season for over a decade. | |
8 | Andrew Ladd (-4 ) | His best years were short, during the early 2010s with the Jets, but Ladd could really do it all. | ||
9 | - | Devan Dubnyk (+5 ) | Mid-2010s Dubnyk was a W, but consistency wasn't the name of his game. Kind of a best case scenario Martin Jones. | |
10 | - | Drew Stafford (+3 ) | Sabres fans love this dude, but he was really just there for most of his career. He had a hot start but tapered off quickly. | |
11 | - | Andrej Meszaros (+12 ) | Meszaros wasn't the greatest defenseman, but he had some solid years in his prime. | |
12 | - | Wojtek Wolski (+9 ) | Injuries hampered a good start to a career for Wolski. He eventually left the NHL, but he had some nice 40 point seasons. | |
13 | - | Lauri Korpikoski (+6 ) | A player that existed in the NHL. Korpikoski had a 40 point year but was rather unremarkable. | |
14 | - | Al Montoya (-8 ) | A decent backup goaltender for nearly a decade. | |
15 | - | Kyle Chipchura (+3 ) | A pretty standard fourth line center. | |
16 | - | Cam Barker (-13 ) | Randomly had a 40 point season. He sucked ass every other season he played though. | |
17 | - | Ladislav Smid (-8 ) | Played bottom pair minutes for basically his entire career. Was more known for dirty hits than good play. | |
18 | - | Rostislav Olesz (-11 ) | His time in Florida was decent, usually splitting time between the third and fourth lines. | |
19 | Jeff Schultz (+8 ) | Played bottom pair minutes and usually would be the seventh d-man on the roster. | ||
20 | Mark Fistric (+8 ) | Literally just Jeff Schultz. Had a good 2009-2010 season though. | ||
21 | - | Petteri Nokelainen (-5 ) | Played over 200 NHL games, but never managed to do anything notable. A fourth line player. | |
22 | Rob Schremp (+3 ) | His last two seasons in the league provided some hope for a bottom six forward career, but Schremp left the NHL. He's now playing in China. | ||
23 | - | Boris Valabik (-13 ) | Traded for Blake Wheeler. That's the highlight of Valabik's career. | |
24 | Lukas Kaspar (-2 ) | Had a good 13 game stint with the Sharks in 2008-2009, but left the NHL at an early age. | ||
25 | Alexandre Picard (-17 ) | Picard was horrendous for the Blue Jackets. He didn't even play 100 NHL games, and when he did play, he put up less career points than Lukas Kaspar. | ||
26 | - | Lauri Tukonen (-15 ) | Five games played in the NHL. | |
27 | Kris Chucko (-3 ) | Two games played in the NHL. | ||
28 | Marek Schwarz (-11 ) | Six games played...but sucked extremely. | ||
29 | Andy Rogers (+1 ) | Never played a single NHL game. | ||
30 | - | A.J. Thelen (-18 ) | Never played a single NHL game, but is worse than Rogers considering that Thelen was the twelfth pick in the draft. |
