Had this discussion with my buddy the other day on who has been the biggest bust in Caps draft pick history and who was the best late round draft choice (5th round or more) in Capitals history. I also threw in the worst draft we had in my eyes
I'm a youngin so mine are:
Bust: Anton Gustafsson | Sasha Pokulok
Gus played a total of 1 game in Hershey and Sasha bounced around the minors and has since played the past 6 years in the LNAH.
Late Round: Mathieu Perreault
Matty P didn't have a long Caps career but he's had a nice career and gets about 40-45 points a year. Honorable mention to Djoos here since he also was a 7th rounder and looks like he might carve himself out a career as a bottom pairing D
Worst Draft: Elite Prospects - NHL Entry Draft 2007
Other than Karl this draft stunk. No other draft choice had a game in the NHL and a lot of guys barely carved out AHL playing time.
