I think this is where you're head is going, 3rd round pick vs 6th overall pick? Boom 6th overall has way future star potential then the 3rd round pick.
First, see my post above.

Second, Tkachuk did a ton in his first OHL season, much more than Gillies did in his first couple of years in college.

However, it's an apples and orange comparison. Goalies and forwards are very difficult to compare at the same age.
