I promised someone a while back I’d dip into the old draft guides I have. Here’s the earliest one I could find, although I know I had some going back into the 90’s. Also ranked in the first two rounds: Biznasty and Cory Crawford. Not ranked in the top 60: Bergeron and Weber.
EDIT: I was trying to do this fast and missed their “Top 100” list. #76 – Shea Weber, #81- Dan Carcillo. Not a top 100 player: Patrice Bergeron. 😂
Apparently Corey Perry has always had a punchable face
Brent Seabrook mean mugging
Yes, the painful memory of another Oilers draft bust. Marc-Antoine Pouliot. Picks made after him are insane.
Big Jeff Carter
Nathan Horton vs Ryan Getzlaf for most dramatic hair change. wow.
Now I get why Anaheim was so drawn to Sennecke.
Where’s 18 to 20?
It’s funny reading the concern about Staal “not being strong enough if he only tops out at 200 lbs”. Obviously the league was a different game in 2003 but nowadays a guy at 200 would be a blessing
Why do Suter, Parise and Phaneuf look the exact same as they do now?
This makes me sad as a Sharks fan, we could have Getzlaf or Perry, or prevented several knee injuries with a Dustin Brown selection in instead of Michalek.
Am I reading the birthday correctly? Vanek was an overager in this draft year? He’s an entire year older than Suter, and it’s not a late birthday.
Always tried to get zherdev to 99OV in the old nhl games
Those Parise stat lines at Shattuck are mind blowing
I genuinely remember watching Steve Bernier play. Shame he never really hit as high heights as as we hoped, but over 600 NHL games, very respectable.
Huge Specimen – Fuck you Sather!
That’s a lot of guys in there who ended up on the Wild on the back end of their careers.
Although I think most of us in Minnesota remember Eric Fehr’s goofy teacher brother dancing in the stands at Wild games more than we actually remember Fehr.
Never realized Eric Fehr went in ’03. I wonder how many rings this class has in total
“Marc-Andre Fleury elevates the emo” is my first glance at a sentence, this post has potential
Corey Perry looks 12 😂
Marc Andre Fleury was spot on
Corey Perry looks like he was shoved into a few lockers.
So scrawny looking
“The Greyhounds were not a top-end team and Carter carried himself well…”
