Hey! So I did a little bit of stat crunching, in the image below. Some disclaimers before you take a look:
This compares CDC draft picks made THIS YEAR to NHL picks made THIS YEAR. if you drafted a player that was drafted in a previous year, that shows up here as you selecting a player that was not drafted. No, @D-Money did not draft 10 undrafted players, most (maybe all) were taken previously. additionally, the highest and lowest value swings are there - if it is an N/A, that means nobody you took was drafted This year. (shout out to @Captain Azzy, among others), Value swings 1st round compares the total delta of your first round selections to where they went in real life, same with round 1 and 2. Some stuff here is screwy, I didn't want to spend too long on it, and some of the data is probably wrong because of names being spelled funny, I only fact checked the first three rounds or so.
NOW some shoutouts: Big ups to @Phil The Thrill and @Watermelons for running away with the field in terms of value created
Some big "What do you know that we don't" awards to @Art Vandelay @Jaku @JE14 and @LilBurrows
Biggest jump of the draft goes to your truly and @Sygvard for Kody Clark (what a massive reach in real life. I love you washington, but that's a BAD pick)
Highest pick to actually not be drafted at all was Nando Eggenburger (also maybe best name in the draft? 3 foods in one!), taken 70th overall by @LilBurrows
Highest value jump in the first round was Denisenko and Kaut, by @70seven and @Master Mind, at 9 spots apeice. Extend it to the 2nd round, and the 35 position jump by Jacob Bernard-Docker, courtesy of @Watermelons, is tops. @Salter managed to hit the 50th overall with his 50th overall! The last pick to do so (this happened several times earlier, of course, including the top couple and Alex Alexeyev.
That's all folks! sorry about the wall of text, I'll see y'all next year.
