Using 200 NHL games as a standard,
90% of defensemen taken among the top ten picks, have achieved that goal,
65% of those taken in picks 11-20,
59% of those taken in picks 21-30. The most successful drafts in terms of d-men were
1979 (13 of 14) and
1998 (10 of 11).
When did you start this blog? I've been fooling around with Draft analysis for a while. I hope to do post some stuff in August during the dead time between free agency and the start of training camp.
