But you have to consider the landscape is changing and how that looks moving forward. ComixZone is right; 2 in 21 years didn't go right to the NHL. However, 1 in 2 drafted out of US college or university did go back. (Power did, Celebrini did not)
Since the NCAA is now an option, that might be something that happens more often going forward. And when you add that in other sports athletes are increasingly "choosing" where to play, it becomes another ploy.
