2. R O’Rourke – Wild – drafted #39 (Not ranked in re-draft)
3. H Grans – Kings – drafted #35 (Ranked #62 in re-draft)
4. R Jarventie – Senators – drafted #33 (Ranked #57 in re-draft)
5. H Lapierre – Capitals – drafted #22 (Ranked #43 in re-draft)
Top 5 best picks:
1. D Levi – Panthers – drafted #212
2. A Nikishin – Hurricanes – drafted #69
3. S Farrell – Canadiens – drafted #124
4. A Lundell – Panthers – drafted #12
5. J Sanderson – Senators – drafted #5
I have used the following formula to attempt to weight the value of a good pick (where a player’s re-draft position was higher than their actual drafted position):
*=IF(GX<FX,(FX-GX+(weighted value)), » »)*
Players ranked outside top 40 of re-draft have not been taken into account, as in my opinion jumping from pick 163 to pick 61 isn’t anywhere near as impressive as jumping from pick 37 to pick 7 in a re-draft.

Jacob Truscott was the highest Canucks player ranked in the re-draft at #72.
Also interesting to note that Nils Aman is ranked at #41 in re-draft and the pick that the Canucks gave up in the Miller trade (S Mukhamadullin) is ranked #16 in the re-draft.

Hockey gods really threw us a bone here by not only making this a pretty weak draft but also tanking our pick yet still keeping us starved for in person playoffs.

Sens made out like bandits in that draft.
