2004 Draft - 17 players have yet to play an NHL game.

2005 Draft - 13 players have yet to play an NHL game.

2006 Draft - 14 players have yet to play an NHL game.

2007 Draft - 16 players have yet to play an NHL game. - Byrons draft (was taken in the 6th round)

2008 Draft - 13 players have yet to play an NHL game.
Okay so he's average for a second round pick in his draft year. The thing is we gave up a second rounder 4 years after his draft year when we should have had a better handle on his top end potential. Like I said in other years a second was worth a proven NHL player, not a tweener. I didn't like the whole Regher deal when it went down and I like it even less now.
