I know you're saying this in jest, so this isn't directed at you, but some people are using the Hull/St-Louis comparables so I'm throwing this out there.
Sven Baertschi drafted 13th overall in 2011
Oleg Saprykin drafted 11th overall in 1999
The year they were drafted
Baertschi - 85 points in 66 games played
Saprykin - 93 points in 66 games played
The year after they were drafted
Baertschi - 94 points in 47 games played
Saprykin - 66 points in 48 games played
NHL totals after 66 games
Baertschi - 8G 20A for 28 points
Saprykin - 9G 15A for 24 points
I wish Baertschi nothing but the best, but for every Martin St-Louis there are hundreds of Oleg Saprykin's.
