Yep, here's a bit of how our most recent draftees have been doing:
1 (6) - Tkachuk - LW on one of the NHL's most elite lines
2 (54) - Parsons - Wins everything
2 (56) - Dube - Silver medalist, outstanding at WJC
3 (66) - Fox - Hobey nominee, gold medalist WJC, crazy numbers in NCAA
4 (96) - Lindstrom - ???
5 (126)- Mattson - ???
6 (156) - Tuulola - Doing quite solid in 1st year in North America on Everett
6 (166) - Phillips - High scorer in WHL
7 (186) - Falkovsky - Giant yet quick dman who is somehow finding a goal scoring touch playing in the ECHL
Compared to the years before that, things look significantly more promising with this batch.
