Much has been said about the Jets' "draft and develop" strategy. Obviously, that relies heavily on drafting more successfully than most other NHL franchises. So, as we make our way through the fourth pre-season, how does the Jets draft success compare to other franchises over the past four drafts? This assessment doesn't take into account the draft position, but rather the overall quality and quantity of the players they have drafted.
To recap, some key draft picks in the past 4 years:
2011
Scheifele
Lowry
2012
Trouba
Kosmachuk
Hellebuyck
2013
Morrissey
Petan
Comrie
Copp
Lipon
Kichton
(Lodge, Kostalek)
2014
Ehlers
Glover
De Leo
How many NHL teams have drafted a more promising group of prospects in terms of quality / quantity? Which teams are those and who are their key draftees?
