Student Of The Game
Suppose all the top prospects of the entry draft era were suddenly available in the same year. But you don't have a crystal ball. You only have what you've seen of their pre-draft career and the hype associated with them. What would the first round look like?
Basically I'm saying to draft an all-time first round with no consideration to how the players turned out.
Without putting TOO much thought into it, here is a stab at it:
1. Mario Lemieux
2. Guy Lafleur
3. Eric Lindros
4. Sidney Crosby
5. Connor McDavid
6. John Tavares
7. Gilbert Perreault
8. Auston Matthews
9. Denis Potvin
10. Marcel Dionne
Alexandre Daigle
Alexis Lafreniere
Jason Spezza
Nathan MacKinnon
Steven Stamkos
Rasmus Dahlin
Jack Eichel
Brian Bellows
Dale McCourt
Patrik Laine
Pierre Turgeon
Joe Thornton
Patrick Kane
Ilya Kovalchuk
Mats Sundin
Mike Modano
Evgeni Malkin
Jay Bouwmeester
Taylor Hall
Tyler Seguin
Aaron Ekblad
Vincent Lecavalier
HM: Victor Hedman
