Way too early to judge recent drafts, but yeah - right now I'd be pretty confident in saying there is not more than 5 guys better from 6-15 since since 2004 draft - so 5%?

2005 - Kopitar
2007 - Couture, McDonagh
2008 - Karlsson

There may be others who could have included, like Oliver Ekman-Larsson (who I think will be outstanding), but I'm not sure. But, as I said, too early to judge recent drafts.

interestingly, O'Reilly has pretty similar stats to Kane (same draft year). I don't think you'd get him out of Winnipeg for 10th ov pick
