One more thing worth noting with the forwards: I also looked at the elite forwards (top 36 >0.85 PT/GP)
Here are the odds:
Top 3 pick: 35%
4-6 pick: 7%
7-15 pick: 3%
15-32 pick: 2%
2nd RD: 0.8%
3rd RD: 0.8%
4th RD: 0.3%
5th RD: 0.3%
6th RD: 0.3%
7th RD: 0%
Drafting guys like Point, Pastrnak, Gaudreau, Mark Stone, Kucherov, Aho or Marchand where they were drafted is like finding a unicorn. It's not a winning draft philosophy.
