Are we just talking the draft here?

If so, here's my proposal.

Run an analysis on all NHL players from the last 15 years to see where they played their draft year. Compare that to who their coaches were. Then how successful they were in the NHL.

I'm free balling here.

Variables to matrix

NHL draft ranking by central scouting
Junior team
Junior coach
Games played
Playoff games played
Winning percentage
Playoff winning percentage
Points per game (for offence)
Blocked shots (for defence)
Defensive zone giveaways
Total ice time
Time with the puck
Completed pass percentage
Body checks per game
Penalty minutes per game

Now I'd have to come up with an exact forumla.

Any other key variables that should be considered?
