Number of NHL Draft picks on your team

sshablak

It all starts with the goaltending.
Curious, my team has six, I believe. How many on your team ? And where can we find this info on all the teams ?

Re: Number of NHL Draft picks on your team

What's your team, BTW?

MSU-EL has 6 ... but IMHO this question only results in meaningful answers if you weight the numbers.

Because theoretically a 3rd rounder has far more potential than a 6th rounder.

So what about 1st round = 7 points, 2nd round = 6 points, ... , 7th round = 1 point?

MSU-EL: 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 1 = 26 "draft points"

-----------------
Add: Not all that familiar with other league sites, but CCHA.com has rosters with NHL team affiliations next to player names. Also, school athletics website has bio's with NHL draft pick info.

Cornell has 6, with another in the pipeline.

7+2+1+1+1+1 = 13 draft points.

Using this for BU:

7+2+5+6+1+3+2+4+6+4+6+5+1+3=
55 draft points
 
Re: Number of NHL Draft picks on your team

I believe 11 for Wisconsin. 56 points. 3 - 1st, 4 -2nd, 1-4th, 2 -5th, 1 -7th
 
Re: Number of NHL Draft picks on your team

15 for UND.

http://www.areavoices.com/undhockey/?blog=54362

UND will not have a first-round draft pick on the team this season. The last time that happened was 1999-00, also UND's last national title. In fact, the only first-round pick to win a national title at UND was James Patrick in 1982.
No first round picks at UND! Hurray the curse has been lifted!:p
a recent trend of NHL teams going off the board to get a Sioux recruit...guys who were unranked by Central Scouting when they committed to UND but ended up going in the draft
Good to see NHL teams have faith in the coaching.:)
UND's two best players last year were Ryan Duncan and Chay Genoway -- both undrafted players. In fact, three of UND's top four scorers last season were undrafted free agents.

For DU 13 players = 47 pts

1st Round
- Colborne (BOS) = 7 pts

2nd Round
- Wrenn (SJS), Shore (FLA), Wiercioch (OTT) = 18 pts

3rd Round
- Gifford (PIT) = 5 pts

4th Round - Donovan (NYI), Rakhshani (NYI) = 8 pts

5th Round - Lee (FLA) = 3 pts

6th Round
- Ruegsegger (TOR) = 2 pts

7th Round
- Glasser (EDM), Martin (ATL), Cheverie (FLA), Phillips (CHI) = 4 pts
 
Re: Number of NHL Draft picks on your team

Obviously, high draft choices (Turris, Kessel) are great players, but leave school early and obviously don't contribute as much as guys who stick around for four years.

You might have a pretty good formula if you multiply the draft choice points by the year in school. Say a 5th Round Junior is worth (3 pts X 3 years = 9 pts). A first round Freshman is worth 7 pts (7 X 1 year).

Agreed - that shows <strike>the true</strike> a truer quality of a hockey program. It's less impressive to me to just have an NHL factory.

Nevermind, figured it out.

20 for Minnesota. 90 pts.

7+7+7+7+6+6+6+6+5+5+5+4+4+4+3+2+2+2+1+1
 
Re: Number of NHL Draft picks on your team

RPI has 6 current players drafted.

Code:
Jensen   9th round (-1 point :eek:, I'll make it 0.)
York     6th round  2 points
Bergin   7th round  1 point
Foss     6th round  2 points
Pirri    2nd round  6 points
D'Amigo  6th round  2 points
Total 13 points

Using this, Minnesota ends up with 212 points.

Player with most points: David Fischer, senior first rounder for 28 points.
Player with fewest points: Nick Larson, sophomore seventh rounder for 2 points.

Wow. Pretty high number.

Will be pretty interesting to see these numbers against the preseason polls and then the end of season results.

I'd probably tweak the formula a little more to give more weight to 1st, 2nd & 3rd Round Draft picks.

1st = 10
2nd = 8
3rd = 6
4th = 4
5th = 3
6th = 2
7th = 1

It seems like BC & BU's National Championship teams were heavily laden with NHL Draft picks.

Well going by this your original idea (yer best I think) -
MSU Spartans-

Nill - Soph. 7th round = 2 x 1 = 2
Sucharski - Senior (5th-year redshirt) 5th round = 4 x 3 = 12
Grant - Freshman 4th round = 1 x 4 = 4
Tropp - Junior 3rd round = 3 x 5 = 15
Petry - Junior 2nd round = 3 x 6 = 18
Leveille - Soph. 1st round = 2 x 7 = 14
Total: 65

But, sshablak, I digress :D
