Draft was different back then - Krahn was one of the top ranked goalies and Rick DiPietro went 1st overall.
But yeah by picking Krahn they missed out on stars like....
Mikhiail Yakubov,
Pavel Vorobiev
Alexei Smirnov
Ron Hainsey
Vaclav Nedorost
There is no player taken 10-20 in that entire draft that you're like "oh the made a huge miss by not taking him and taking Krahn instead". Just a bad draft.
