What Happened To Every #2 Pick From the 2000's

We saw multiple Norris Trophy winning defenseman and a center that would have been the face of any other team, all taken at #2 in the same decade. Then there’s also an elite goal scorer that killed his teammate.
Today we take a look at what happened to every 2nd overall pick from the 2000's.

Crazy thumbnail

[@samthompson1843]

Idc what anyone has to say, from the minute he lit up the all star game, up till his last game in the league, Dany Heatley was always my favorite player to watch during his career....his run in Ottawa was absolutely crazy

[@ethanparker7900]

Hedman is actually a six time finalist. He reminds me very much of Nick Lidstrom too. Makes sense cause his first 3 seasons were Lidstroms final 3 so got to emulate him up close. Malkin is quite the force too I mean it was also crazy as hell he managed to get 50 goals and an art ross and hart and ted lindsay in a year crosby missed most of. To be honest, I thought Stamkos should've gotten the Ted Lindsay award given that he scored 60 goals that year on a mediocre team and he had been nominated that year for a second consecutive time but thats not the point and I do agree 100% Malkin earned the hart trophy and was obviously happy fo him to get that and receive his second art ross that year as well especially without crosby by his side most of the year. I think it is a joke that Malkin along with a handful of other players like Stamkos, Iginla, Jumbo Joe, Ed Belfour and Roenick weren't included in the 100 best players list in 2017. Those guys were certainly more deserving than some of those that got named over them.

[@HeatherRadcliffe-pb1vj]

Yall still crying about 2017 lmfao get over it.

[@ethanparker7900]

who said anything about crying lady?? I am expressing something that is very true here and many other people would do so as well. Get outta here for god sake of you're that braindead @@HeatherRadcliffe-pb1vj

[@Spike-sk7ql]

I'm sorry, but no one can compare with Lidstrom. The best defenseman to ever grace the ice. (Maybe a little Red Wing bias there, but it probably isn't too far from the truth)

[@ethanparker7900]

@@Spike-sk7ql yah prolly bias from you being a wings fan but if you really think about it he is very similar to lidstrom. They are both swedish, are both offensive defenseman, both have won the cup more than once, both were fortunate to make multiple appearances in the finals and have been apart of dynasties, both have at least 1 conn smythe trophy and many other things. Clearly you are biased cause you don't know hedman as well as you think unlike me who knows both players well. You even said probably so you basically admitted your ignorance and bias in this topic

[@ethanparker7900]

get outta here lady a lot of other people would say the same thing. Some of the people named was a joke. Since when does expressing that mean crying? @@HeatherRadcliffe-pb1vj

[@father042]

All of them managed to have respectable careers, even Bobby Ryan who played over 800 games

[@Heytherebuds]

That thumbnail is rough

[@LeClaw]

I was there for Bobby Ryan's first NHL goal. that was an epic weekend.

[@zachross8081]

[@zachross8081]

love dany Heatley ❤💙

[@zachross8081]

love bobby ryan ❤💙

[@Mad_Matt42]

Damn Heatly's career was... special ^^'

[@alphadog1961]

Bet you could make a cup winning team from Ottawa cast aways...players like Dimitra,,Chara,Hossa...

[@arnettrabaker4872]

Evgeni Malkin is the mothaf--n man, and I am so happy I’ve gotten to watch him play live!

[@15DurangoRT]

Probation for Heatley. What a joke.

[@clocks8137]

jonathan cheechoo not cheecho. bro lol

[@clocks8137]

dan snyder was 25 years old not 30

[@volh1volh195]

14.24 "by February 99th 2010 Lenin was traded to the Dallas Stars in exchange for Ivan Viski"

[@jasongammel6487]

Yes

[@K1VLY]

Yes

[@themacud]

Rest in piece Dan Snyder

[@draws7944]

Heatley became the second NHL player ever to score a shoot-out goal?

[@jamesnewbury6354]

Ya wtf I was like yo wtf dude that shi is wack dude af wack ass video

[@brianscovers8850]

Technically the first game that was decided by shootout (new concept in 05) Alfredson scored first then Heatley the second goal

[@olivierdallaire8]

Dan Snyder was 25 when he passed not 30

[@casualgamer1991]

Dan Snyder was 25 not 30 when he passed away.

[@nathanmackinnon7405]

blasphemous thumbnail. center bias is insane

[@JaredtheRabbit]

It’s “chi-choo”, not “chi-cho”

[@wolfmauler]

Come on Geno! 🐧#71 Nailed on for the HHOF, but not the NHL's 100 greatest players 😆👍🏻...What clowns

[@ethanparker7900]

seeing him, stamkos, iginla and joe thornton not getting into the 100 best players in 2017 was a complete joke.

[@pcvetic]

Didn't the put bedard on the list?😂. If you put players on a greatest list before they played at least a few seasons the list is a joke

[@ethanparker7900]

exactly man all people do is dickride bedard like come on maybe in 5-6 years we can have a better idea on where he ranks among greats @@pcvetic

[@capsfan8585]

Malkin is not better than Ovechkin. Career second liner😂😂😂😂

[@thechefmike]

CROSBY WAS LINE 1 ! lol

[@maitrehg]

Malkin have a better points/game average in career than Ovi. Not bad for a second liner.

[@nathanmackinnon7405]

⁠@@maitrehg well yeah he’s a center on the second line and doesn’t face shutdown lines like the first line does. plus he’s always injured, and the best ability is availability

[@quix9556]

He has a 110 point season pace in his 148 games where Crosby is absent, and had an MVP season when Sid was on that long recovery from the winter classic concussion. I think he’s alright.

[@nathanmackinnon7405]

@@quix9556 he’s a first ballot hall of famer and maybe even a generational talent, but he’s not ovechkin. ovi is the greatest left winger ever by a mile and could arguably be the greatest winger period if/when he breaks the record. malkin isn’t anywhere close to being a top 5 center and might not even be top 10 depending on who you ask

[@mgdubya27]

I get the feeling by all the mispronounced names that this channel is run by non hockey fans.

[@Natemack29]

I think I know what I’m doing tonight

[@gerble36]

Year 2000 was the last year of the 20th century, not the first of the new century. Just saying :P.

[@turarosicky]

1999 was last year of the 20th century my friend, every century starts with 0 and ends with 99, 1900 was first year of 20th century

[@sethmizrachi8337]

Malkin better than Ovechkin? What the fuck are you smoking and where the hell can I get some?

[@ChrisHayworth100]

I love how long you spend telling us about Heatley. I bet it's hard to make mistakes from your mummys basement. Give me a fucking break.

[@nicholasonciul5770]

???

[@FloogenBoggin]

Nah technically the teammate killed himself cause if he was ejected 30 feet from the car he wasn’t wearing a seatbelt and that’s not on Heatley, heatley caused the accident yes but there’s a way higher chance the passenger would’ve lived if he was wearing his seatbelt.

[@rjay._.1]

Not how that works. If heatly doesn’t crash, the guy doesnt die

[@quix9556]

That’s like saying you’re a victim of an armed robbery then it’s self harm.

[@user-ur1zw1ho7v]

Heatley was also impaired drinking and driving so shame on him.

[@Mashangi]

He may still have died, but his injuries would have been greatly reduced and his chances of survival would have gone up for sure.

[@wolfmauler]

Yeah, Snyder was basically asking for it, good point. What a bizarre comment, "technically the teammate killed himself..."
