Wow - that is a bit of a lackluster bunch. Surprising.

 

Khmylev was, IIRC, part of the one of the most hilariously awful calls that Gurtler ever manufactured. Something about the "euro-train pulling into the station."

He may not be #1, but Rasmussen has to be one of the most disappointing Sabres of all time, right?

 

That was a terrible draft in general for all teams... Rasmussen (picked 7th overall) ended up playing over 500 games in the NHL, which is more games than the 2nd, 4th and 5th picks that year.

I didn't follow prospects and whatnot back then, I just remember comparisons to Keith Tkachuk.

Was he a high draft pick?

 

He was.

Good insight. Rasmussen at least had stretches of time where he was useful, competent.

Hey guys, I really screwed this up again. My friend I mentioned in the Thursday thread passed away. Could someone please put a picture of Schoenfeld and Housley for number 6, and maybe a number five guy, and cover number 4 tomorrow (Sunday) please? Thanks so much for your help so far with this thing, and I'm sorry to be flaking it up right at the end.
