    Olli Juolevi

    You can make an argument for Virtanen but imo Juolevi was by far our biggest bust at being drafted 5th overall.

    He was supposed to be our future franchise D-man but ended up playing only 23 games for us before being bounced out of the NHL. In fact, he played the least amount of NHL games out of the top 20 picks in his draft year.

    Recency bias but Virtanen, was given every chance and tool to succeed and couldn’t even make it in the KHL which says a lot.

    HM to Juolevi, sure he wasn’t gonna live up to 5OA but injuries derailed him exceedingly quick

    Jake Virtanen by a country mile (or kilometer, since I’m from the U.S.).

    Patrick White – a first round pick that didn’t even end up playing a single ECHL game. Thankfully we got Ehrhoff out of trading him. And he was drafted 1 pick ahead of David Perron and other notable NHLers drafted after him includes Brendan Smith and PK Subban.

    Olli Juolevi and mentions to Patrick White who’s was a first round pick to never play a NHL game and Nathan Smith who played in the NHL but never registered a single point

  6. Virtanen – had the biggest potential and asset to be a top 6 power forward but ruined it on his own terms in the worst way possible. At least Juolevi did his best but succumbed to injuries

    Libor Polasek

    Never heard of him? There is a reason why. On his wiki page he is described as one of the worst 1st round picks by any NHL team. From the get go, he was never good enough for any professional league. At least Virtanen made the team and scored a few goals.

    Olli since we passed on Matt Tkachuk for him. Olli never showed a smattering of skill at the NHL level. At least we got an 18 goal season out of Jake. #ThanksJim

    Dan Woodley 2 goal 5 games drafted 7th in 1986

    Olli Juolevi (The likely winner ) had same number of goals an assist and 4x the games for Vancouver

    Who could have been drafted instead
    Both cold have been replace by top player

    In 1986 Leetch

    In 2016 Matthew Tkachuk

    Close and I think the voting will go joulvi but Woodley wins for me
