Versteeg (134th) - Bennett (4th) - Chiasson (38th)
Bouma (78th) - Stajan (57th) - Brouwer (214th)
F. Hamilton (129th)


Giordano (undrafted) - D. Hamilton (9th)
Brodie (114th) - Stone (69th)

Kulak (105th)

Elliott (291st)
Johnson (125th)

Gillies (75th)

It's entirely possible to build a very good team without a top-3 pick. The lottery shouldn't be the be-all and the end-all, especially in a weak year.
