Players can easily be greater than 10 spots apart even in the first. A team may have a player as a 1st rounder that another team doesn't have in the first couple rounds.

People would be shocked how different the team lists are if we had access to them.
Are you saying that you've seen NHL draft lists? If you have, I will believe you. It's sometimes hard to tell if people are certain because they have evidence or because they are stubborn on this board.
