Blue Bullet Report(Updated Apr 22: Expected Draft Value of a Forward Selected Top 90)

[Blue Bullet]

In today's post I have applied the NHLP formula to every top 3 overall pick since 1998. See how current Oilers McDavid, Hall, Draisaitl, RNH and Yakupov compare to other top 3 picks.

Thanks for letting me know guys. The link has been fixed.

How appropriate is it that McDavid is predicted to get 97 points based on your calculations?

Rookie point prediction for McDavid:

Using my point prediction model for draft eligible CHL forwards (NHLP), I compared McDavid relative to other top picks and how they progressed in their rookie season in the NHL.

Based on this, my points prediction for McDavid's rookie season is 77GP-28G-43A-71P

In my latest post I apply the NHLP formula to CHL forwards selected #4-6 overall.

My latest post looks at my rookie point predictions for Jack Eichel.

In my latest post I apply my point prediction model to CHL forwards drafted 7th to 10th Overall. Which 2015 draft pick is 4th on the list sitting between Ehlers and Voracek?

Today's post on the Blue Bullet Report I re-evaluate the 2010 #1 overall pick debate. I look back on how I came about selecting Taylor Hall in 2010 and than compare that against my new method of analysis using my point prediction model NHLP.

I think what will really separate the Taylor vrs Tyler debate is when the Oilers finally make the playoffs. Hall's style of play and mentality is made for post season play.

Outstanding analysis.

#7-10 Overall

In my latest post I apply my point prediction model to CHL forwards drafted 11th to 15th Overall. Alex Tanguay and Bryan Little top the list.

Today's post on the Blue Bullet Report I look back into why RNH was the first selection of the 2011 NHL draft. I also evaluate whether the Oilers made the right selection with RNH or if new statistical evidence suggests a better option was available.

Interesting. Look forward to seeing your 2012 analysis, since that is easily the most controversial 1st OA year for us.

In my latest post I apply my point prediction model to CHL forwards drafted 16th to 20th Overall. The Oilers traded away the 16th overall pick which could have been used on Barzal or Svechnikov. What type of players do they project to be offensively?

#11-15

In my latest post at the Blue Bullet Report, I review the Oilers month of October based on the quality of competition faced. While a 4-8-0 record is not great it may not be as bad as some belief. I also make predictions on what results I expect for the month of November.

I think the record is ok going off the schedule we had. Besides, I am not the only one that thinks that we should've got points in 2 of those games in October. I think you know which 2 games i am referring to

In my latest post I apply my point prediction model to CHL forwards drafted 21st to 25th Overall. See how stats matter as their is a clear difference between the players with the top 12 NHLP scores versus the bottom 13. Also see how Rob Schremp's numbers predicted he would be a poor selection. Also check out how Marc Pouliot and Jordan Eberle faired.

#16-20 Overall

Interesting. Look forward to seeing your 2012 analysis, since that is easily the most controversial 1st OA year for us.

In my latest blog post I look at Nail Yakupov and where he would possibly fall in other draft seasons. See why I believe Yakupov should be considered more like a 4th or 5th overall pick than a true #1.

In my latest post I apply my point prediction model to CHL forwards drafted 26th to 30th Overall. Recent draft picks such as Goldobin, Scherbak, Beauvillier, Ho Sang, Klimchuk and Merkley project very well.

#26-30

 

[Blue Bullet]

In my latest post I combine the results for the 184 CHL forwards drafted in the first round.

Damn, Landeskog is real low on that list. Galchenyuk is also really low, but I wonder if his injury skewed his NHLP.
