Draft historie...

Ikke alle har blitt draftet like høyt, men gjør det noe når man heter:
- Nicklas Lidström? Han ble draftet i 3.runde og nr.53 totalt..
- Sergei Federov? Han ble draftet i 4.runde og nr.74 totalt..
- Pavel Datsyuk? Han ble draftet i 6.runde og nr.171 totalt..
- Henrik Zetterberg? Han ble draftet (og hold dere fast..) i 7 runde som nr.216!!!
Ole Kristian Tollefsen ble draftet i 3.runde som nr.65 totalt for å sette det i perspektiv!

Les også dette om Detroits og NHL's mest suksessfulle draft noensinne!:
"Best draft: Detroit Red Wings, 1989 -- This is the draft that helped turn the Wings into the elite organization they've become. Eight of the players chosen made the NHL, with six having significant careers. Four have played at least 1,000 games and three still were active in 2008-09, 20 years after being drafted. Third-round pick Nicklas Lidstrom, a six-time Norris Trophy winner, is a lock for the Hall of Fame, as is fourth-rounder Sergei Fedorov, the highest-scoring Russian-born player in NHL history. First-round pick Mike Sillinger and sixth-rounder Dallas Drake (who retired after the Wings won the 2008 Cup) have played well over 1,000 games. Second-rounder Bob Boughner played 625 games, and Vladimir Konstantinov, an 11th-round choice, would have played a lot more than 446 were it not for a 1997 auto accident that ended his career."

Så selv om man ikke hører om diverse spillere i årets draft skal man ikke skyve de under en stol!!
Så JA, det er håp for våre unggutter som Mats Rosseli Olsen,Jonas Oppøyen, Andreas Stene etc...
