Blais said on the coaches show that he was giving the upper classmen a chance and that perhaps a freshman would take their place if they don't produce. I think it's only a matter of time before Stafford is on the PP but in the "pecking order" of players they already have one Freshman (Murray) so the others will get a chance. How many 200lb potential first rounders with soft hands and a scoring touch are not on their college teams' PP?

Daigle never really panned out and he was first overall..

By the way, Hasek was picked beyond the 4th round. Balfour was UNDRAFTED

Luc Robitaille was picked 200 plus overall. I think even Gretzky wasn't a first rounder (but that is highly speculative)

Gretzky wasn't drafted into the NHL period...he was already playing for Edmonton when they were expanded into the NHL.

Yeah, Gretzky signed with the Indianapolis Racers(?). Shortly after signing, the Racers folded and the Oilers purchased Gretzky or something like that. Then Edmonton and some of the other WHL teams were later absorbed by the NHL. If he would've been drafted, he would've went pretty darn high even if he was considered small. (150 lbs. soaking wet and you probably could've found some women in the arena who could beat him up. - Barry Mulletrose :glare: )
