I do like that Even Strength Primary points per game stat from that website, I think even strength points mean more to creating a strong team then having a bunch of PP point generators.

Lots of guys in the 0.5 to 0.55 range (or lower) for that stat didn't end up translating their offense very good to the NHL level.

RNH
J.Staal
Laad
Pouliot
B. Schenn
Niedereiter
Kadri
Monahan
Scheifele
Hamill
Mueller
Couture
Hodgson

Those forwards were all taken with top 10 picks and while it is too early to tell for a lot of them, you also have a pretty good group of players who haven't quite lived up to expectations offensively yet.

The guys who are 0.75 or above in their draft year have translated to elite/top line players with two exceptions.

Kane
Tavares
Stamkos
Hall
Seguin
Strome
Gagner

The players in this draft that are 0.75 or above:

Bennett
Draisaitl
Ritchie
Fabbri

Very interesting the Fabbri is also the only player outside of P.Kane in that grouping to have elite markings in 4 or more offensive categories. Have to think he would be higher ranked if he was 6'0".
