Also, as a side note, my son and I were in attendance when they played their last game in Vancouver against Arizona and it was the most emotional hockey moment I’ve ever experience in person. My little guy was about 8 at the time and we just sat in the stands for 20 minutes after the game ended and cheered and cried along with 18,000 other people. Pretty magical!

@@yoholmes273 of the tens of thousands of players who have struggled to make the NHL over the last hundred or so years a majority of them haven’t won a Stanley Cup. Most of them won’t win Gold Medals or the Hart Trophy or the King Clancy or the Art Ross or the Ted Lindsay but the twins did that. Everybody wants a cup but I guarantee they have no regrets when it comes to their career. Also, there was a time that they easily could have asked for a trade to go to a contender rather than round out their career on a bottom feeder like Vancouver at that time but they didn’t. That says a lot about their character.

In 1998 I dated a girl that went to SUNY Potsdam. One night while she and her roommates were out I stayed home to watch a random hockey game on ESPN 2. They had a Swedish exchange student that lived with them. A very nice young woman named Olga. Well she came home that night with her boyfriend Peter (also Swedish). He saw me watching the game and said “ my brothers play hockey, they’re really good. They’re twins”. I was like cool man that’s awesome. Peter said, “ no I don’t think you understand. They’re really good and are going to be drafted into the NHL.” The internet wasn’t as prevalent as it is today so I couldn’t exactly look it up. Well that was Peter Sedin, Henrik and Daniels brother. He was a great guy. I was very happy for him.

The Sharks getting Brad Stuart after trading away the picks that ended up being Vincent Lecavalier and David Legwand actually benefited the franchise a few years later. They packaged Stuart, Sturm, and Primeau and traded them to Boston and got Jumbo Joe Thornton. Bonus fact: the Sharks also received a 2nd round pick in the same trade that had them trade the 1st round pick that ended up being Legwand to Nashville. That 2nd round pick was Jonathan Cheechoo, who benefited big time from having Joe Thornton as a linemate in 2005-06.

@@AshtrayAnnie When do you think people started to notice Connor McDavid? When he got to the OHL? No, he was always the best player at every level he played and people were already talking about him in bantam. Same thing for Gretzky. At 15 he was already playing with 20 year olds and averaging 2 points per game. It's very possible that Pollock saw him and made the trade with him in mind, considering he did something similar with Lafleur before and was way ahead of everyone else in terms of scouting at that time.

[@AshtrayAnnie]

@@emileplante go back and read what you said man. I've been a scout for many years and know how the scouting system works. You said the Rockies traded in 76 with the intentions to draft Gretzky when available. That's still 2-3 years from his draft year (also not to forget the draft rules were changed in 79).

I'm conflicted when it comes to Burke because of the year before, when he traded the 30th and 39th picks to move up to 22nd to pick Tyler Biggs. Biggs never played in the NHL and retired from IHL life in 2019. The 30th pick becomes Rickard Rakell, and the 39th becomes John Gibson.

[@jonathancote9372]

You forgot to mention that Pollock seeing that the Golden Seals might not finished last, exanges an established players to the LA kings in hope that will help them pass the Golden Seals in the standing (wich they finally did) and so securing Lafleur as the first round pick (Detroit ending up picking Marcel Dionne at #2) Pollock was taking advantages of new GMs that didn't really know what they were doing with new franchises and in 1967 when the league expend with 6 new teams, the old teams were allowed to protect almost all their nhlers and ahlers so it left only old or amateur player for those franchise to start with, no wonder they suck until the mid 70's

A few things that need to be said about the Habs stealing the #1 pick for 1980. 1. The trade was made in 1977-78, not 1976. 2. The deal was made when the NHL draft was in a chaotic state of flux due to the WHA raiding junior clubs of players as young as 15 as they had no age limits unlike the NHL. 3. Like with Guy in 1971, Pollack had a player in mind based on the NHL's draft rules at the time. (They had lowered their age limit from 22 to 21 to 20 and now to 19. It would lower yet again after the NHL/WHA merger a year later.) The man he wanted was Soo Greyhounds' wonder kid Wayne Gretzky who would be eligible in 1980 and likely the consensus #1 pick if he stayed in junior in the event of the WHA folding. The problem was the WHA survived another year and they snagged Wayne when he was 17 meaning he would NOT be eligible for the draft so the Habs needed to start from 0 when that draft took place. 4. Pollack's reign as Canadiens' GM ended soon after this trade took place and his successor, Grundman, trainwrecked the pick drafting for a need instead of the best player on the board.

[@j.tshark3313]

.* The Colorado Rockies' first round pick went to the Montreal Canadiens as the result of a trade on September 13, 1976 that sent Ron Andruff, Sean Shanahan and the 19th overall pick to the Colorado Rockies in exchange for this pick.

Nathan Horton and the Sedin twins were both instrumental in the Bruins' 2011 Stanley Cup win. Horton, after getting a severe concussion, became the guy in the locker room who would rally the Bruins to victory. Whether it be dumping Boston water onto the Vancouver ice or having his agent, Bobby Orr, waving the #18 banner before game 6. The Sedins just faded into the background. I remember one of them being punched repeatedly in the face by Brad Marchand and looking at the referee for a call. It was moves like that that caused Mike Milbury to famously refer to the Sedins as Thelma and Louise.

[@utoesc6241]

What 2011 Bruins Stanley Cup win are you referring to? I don't remember such a thing. I do remember the Sedin brothers. They were absolute icons, along with a select few others like Ovi and Sid they were the face of the sport.

@Uto ESC uh, the one where the Bruins skated around the ice in Vancouver with Lord Stanley's chalice after they shut the Canucks out 4-0. The one when angry Canucks fans rioted, that one. The Sedins got knocked around, and no one protected them. They may have been good finesse players but no cups.

For Boston I can only think of Chara, a player of similar status. Absolute legend. Some random cup win?

Does anyone have any evidence that Denis Savard was being considered for the #1 pick in 1980?

Also, Gord Kluzak got picked #1 because of a pre-draft trade with the North Stars that had them agree not to pick Brian Bellows. Why they didn't just swap picks is beyond me.

The Penguins trading the Brian Lawton pick worked out for them in unforseen ways. Lawton was a surprise selection, Minnesota GM Lou Nanne being guilty of thinking too much. Lafontaine was long considered the consensus #1 pick in that draft. So if Pittsburgh kept the pick, they would likely have taken Lafontaine. Lafontaine was a great player, not great enough to have Pittsburgh vastly improved over the next couple of years, but good enough that they probably would have finished ahead of the Devils in 1983-84 and Mario Lemieux would have ended up a Devil instead of a Penguin, and the Penguins would be playing somewhere like Saskatoon or Hamilton today instead of Pittsburgh. On top of that, the Islanders were definitely going for Yzerman if Lafontaine had not become so unexpectedly available, so three very famous players, Lafontaine would have been a Penguin, Lemieux would have been a Devil and Yzerman would have been an Islander. But all because Pittsburgh traded that pick to Minnesota, it ended up different.

A successful draft pick swap can make a GM’s career. Which is why they gamble on it. Obviously Craig Patrick was towards the end of the line when he got Fluery, having a couple cups already in the 90’s. But that kind of swap to land that kind of player, who pans out, is the type to spring a career. Not that it comes to fruition often, but that is the gamble the GMs are often willing to take. Especially when their team is bad. You are desperately looking for a cornerstone to build around. Because your days are already numbered with a sucky team.

Top pick is usually a bust or didn't live up to being the best pick out of the top 5ish.... but then you look stupid if ya dont pick the #1 recommended lol

Thumbs down for “in 2003 fleury was the first goalie selected first overall since DiPietro in 2001”. Seriously? This ESPN style of idiotic non impactful stat keeping must die

You seriously need to learn how to edit a video (both, audio/video) because you speak way to much (without any pause). You should have included the biggest #1 trade, the Eric Lindros saga.

[@idontgivetkachuk]

As stated, in order to count the phyiscal draft pick itself had to have been traded.. Not the player selected with it.. Lindros got traded after he was already selected..
