You are correct, but its a slightly different criteria. NHL is looking ahead 4-5 years at least and is really basing it on future potential. Junior leagues are more concerned with the next 2-3 years. Also, junior teams may actually shy away from a player if he is too good. In otherwords, they might feel a kid will jump to the NHL soon as he is drafted, so the kid who is good but stays for 4 years of junior is actually more valuable.
I agree with Andy.......this does not happen.
