Going back 10 years now:

2006: Jordan Staal (2nd)
2007: Patrick Kane (1st)
2008: Stamkos (1st)
2009: Tavares (1st)
2010: Hall (1st)
2011: Landeskog (2nd)
2012: Yakupov (1st)
2013: Monahan (6th)
2014: Bennett (4th)
2015: McDavid (1st)
2016: Tkachuk (6th)

So pretty good company for Tkachuk - and outside of Yakupov scouts have rarely been wrong on top forwards out of the OHL.

2016: Juolevi (5th)?
