2016 Draft Risers and Fallers

[Hanni]

I set up a spreadsheet to track the differences between the CPHL and NHL drafts. The numbers are the difference between the players draft position between the two drafts.

The biggest fallers:



The biggest risers:



Also the notable overagers:

Henrik Borgstrom 23rd OV
Yegor Korshkov 31 OV
Dylan Gambrell 60OV
Rem Pitlick 76OV
Casey Fitzgerald 86 OV

Big thanks for doing this,

For big looser's I had a 3rd round selection not drafted in the NHL

I had the same thing. I apparently drafted like the Canes this time around.

There something to be said about consistency

thanks for this. Quick correction though, Givani Smith is not an overager. Should be on the biggest risers list instead (+33) as well as Hudson Elynuik (+26)

We were pretty close to the same ballpark as the NHL on the majority of our picks. We struck out with the 85th pick taking Knierim as he did not get drafted.

You're right, I quickly updated the risers to reflect this, something happened with those players as I was missing a few.

God damn. I drafted well!

Got Connor Hall, Andrew Peeke and Tarmo Reunanen late in the draft. Three of the top-5 on Hanni's list. Went way higher in real life.

High five, Pierre!

I was in a bit of a hurry when I did this initially and now that I've got all the spelling issues sorted out I've found a new biggest faller (sorry JonDuke), Dmitry Sokolov.

Also the notable overagers:

Henrik Borgstrom 23rd OV
Yegor Korshkov 31 OV
Dylan Gambrell 60OV
Rem Pitlick 76OV
Casey Fitzgerald 86 OV

Side note: is there any way to get some more consistent spelling? Picking a website (hockeydb, nhl.com etc) and using whatever their spelling lists the player as.
