- Artum Kryukov
- Marcel Hossa
- Alexei Mikhnov
So in the next 8 picks, you have 1 NHLer, before you then get to Brooks Orpik at 18.
So it was a bad pick in a sea of bad picks.

It just felt like that pick was playing to the crowd. I'm sure he would have still been around with 1 of our 2 2nd rounders.
The next goalie chosen after him was in the 2nd round and it was Bryzgalov.
