So 2017 draft:

	Miro Heiskanen	3	1999	Dallas Stars	D
	Juuso Välimäki	16	1998	Calgary Flames	D
	Urho Vaakanainen	18	1999	Boston Bruins	D
	Kristian Vesalainen	24	1999	Winnipeg Jets	F
	Henri Jokiharju	29	1999	Chicago Blackhawks	D
	Eeli Tolvanen	30	1999	Nashville Predators	F

All the drafted D's made it to their teams D+1 year. Pretty amazing to country which has had not that many D's in the recent years.

Tolvanen didn't make Nashville but he's not a defenseman anyway.
