There are some real outlier here.

I mentioned Barlow who's way too low. Moore at number 6 would shock me.

Reinbacher so far back is insane. It's not happening.

Dvorsky at 21? Get out of here, that guy is top 15 at worst. Probably top 10.

Even Oliver Bonk at 51, that'd be a steal at this point.

interesting

Oliver Moore gives me Turcotte vibes of people expecting a 2nd line centre on the USNDP team to just be a star. Kind of worked for Larkin...but it's always a gamble. Especially that early.

How Perreault, who scored more points than Jack Hughes and Auston Matthews (hell he even had more than his centre Will Smith) could fall to #20 is beyond me. No matter how good the draft class is.

2013 was pretty good but did it really stand out?

2015 is easily just as good if not better no?

The ultimate complementary player, Perreault is a play connector. He and Will Smith broke Auston Matthews' NTDP U-18 season scoring record of 117 points, but it’s Perreault that sits atop the list with 132.

Even if they did it one year later, it's still impressive and is completely crazy for a going written at #20 on a draft list.

Meh. U18 US league is a yoke now. It's the U18 team playing the U17 team and then splintering off to play an amalgamation of both. USHL is a better judge...and I'm a Perreault fan, if he goes 20 that's a win.

Matthews was also the only guy on that team to crack 50 goals, whereas this version of the NTDP had 3 guys with 50+

(Also had a 16 year old with 26 Goals in 20 games?!?!)

you think Will Smith could do really bad when meeting with CLB ANA and SJ (on purpose) so they pass on him and he ends up with MTL?
that'd be sneaky good lol

I mean... sure he knows Hughes personally but I don't think he'd go that far.
