In my opinion, Yamamoto should have gone in the top 10 in the entry draft, you stole him at 22.
I was curious as to how many of last summer’s first round draft picks cracked their respective NHL lineups, so i did some digging......
Only 6 of 31 were able survive training camp, and the jury is still out on whether they can remain past the 9 game threshold.
Players listed in blue cracked their respective NHL rosters...... for now.
