More about the Woodley pick...

Dan Woodley went 7th overall to the Canucks.

Can't find anything about him :mellow:

Brian Leetch went 9th overall to the Rangers.

LEETCH'S DRAFT CAPSULE

Here is the report NHL Central Scouting issued on Leetch for draft day of 1986:

Excellent skater with good stride, acceleration, agility and quickness … excellent pivots … excellent backward skater with good lateral movement … good scorer … clever around the net … excellent offensively, especially in close … good, accurate shot with quick release … excellent wrist shot and good slap shot … excellent passer who leads man well on both sides … fast and accurate passer … finds the open man … great anticipation … good peripheral vision … excellent control … smart with the puck … able to go end to end … makes great rushes … good positional player … uses speed to advantage … uses stick very effectively … good strength … plays the finesse game … good desire and attitude … plays with confidence … consistent … makes things happen … strong, creative team player.

I meant it was a bust for us because not only is the guy we picked not here anymore but we also could have had one of those other 3 guys on our team, not saying Hodgson is a bust or a bad player. But if someone said who do you want Hodgson or Eberle I'd take Eberle in a heartbeat.
