The 2017 draft has gone down as one of the deeper drafts in recent memory. So like last year we go back 7 years and review just how well some of these picks turned out. Follow me on Twitter: / varsitysens
Commenting to help you with your engagement. Clearly this video has a ton of effort put in, and I’m gonna be so proud to say I saw you before the blow-up :) I don’t regret a single minute I spent watching
Couldn't be happier to have Nico on the Devils. He has great character and leads by example. One day he'll make a mockery of any redraft that has him below #1, i truly believe that.
As someone who's only been fully invested in hockey for a couples years these videos have been a great way to learn about lower lineup guys from teams I'm not super informed on. Keep it up they're a great watch!
As a Flyers fan, you can fully blame Hextall for Nolan Patrick’s career. Nolan underwent hip surgery right before his rookie season, almost immediately after being drafted. This surgery was the same exact surgery Giroux and Gostisbehere had right before the 2016/17 season, where they both had their worst career seasons at that point. Patrick had this surgery, then had ZERO training camp, then barely played in preseason but then made the opening night roster… It was clearly all to sell the jerseys and tickets, I remember a poster that was spammed all of the WFC shop that was Giroux, Simmonds and Patrick on the poster lmao. It was all downhill from there. Had Nolan went back to junior for 1 more year, then made his debut in Philly in 2018/19 I guarantee you his career would still be going today.
thank you for not shitting all over yammy, he’s been getting disrespected so hard these last two years and even tho he’s a decent player it’s so annoying seeing him get overlooked 😭
Great video man, honestly I'm shocked that you dont have more subs. I've always wished there was more hockey content in the style we see from creators for other sports. I've seen a few really promising hockey channels on the rise lately and you belong right with them. You're a newer channel but already seem like youve been doing it for years. Hope you guys can push the genre of hockey content creation forward, hockey deserves creators like you all.
Tuned in last night fresh after your upload. Great stuff. Quick and to the point; snappy from player to player. Great little idea. Subbed and will stay tuned.
2017 is such a wild draft. Touted as a very weak draft with Patrick and Hischier expected to be "good 2nd line centers" as the top 2 draft choices turned out amazingly with Hischier being NJ's first line center a few weeks into the season. The 2017 top 5 is (sadly except Patrick) one of the strongest top 5 ever. And NONE of them (except Patrick) was expected to be a top 15 pick at the start of the season which is bonkers to me. Also great talents later on. Dallas probably having one of the best drafts of any team ever.
Such an underrated draft. Glad my Devils made the right pick. Anyone that had first was picking Patrick or him so I don't get too worked up missing out on guys like Makar, Miro and Elias. Had they gotten one of those guys then they most likely don't get Hughes so everything happens for a reason
really good video i see a combo of a ton of styles, i love your mix quality too, also i see so many ppl with hockey videos with tons of views but the channels have no subscribers, i think it might be time for me to make a 2018 caps retrospective
Would have loved to see the sens draft Oettinger if Dallas didn’t draft him. But knowing Pierre Dorion, he probably would have traded him before he hit his potential.
Always found it perfect that the 2 best players of the draft ended up on the 2 worst teams in 2017, even though they both dropped 3 spots in the lottery.
If there is any reason why Nolan Patrick won't be an absolute slam dunk pick at #2 overall GM Ron Hextall would know about it. Ya see Ron Hextall played his junior hockey for the Brampton Wheat Kings, the team Patrick plays for. So Ron has all these connections there. But not just that, Ivan Provorov also played for The Wheat Kings so the Flyers have been following the team closely since 2015. This is what we were told at the time.
I KNEW the flyers should have picked makar.....patrick had a history of injuries............they threw the #2 pick in the toilet... thanks so much hextall..........
Cody Glass doesn’t seem well off after this past season, and Middlestat has proven himself to be a solid pick for a while now, definitely a TOP 6 player.
Islanders trading away their pick because of the expansion draft was...oddly the right move. However, Garth Snow would've probably bungled this pick as well
As a Sabres fan any TH-cam “Draft revisit” video just makes me wanna jump off the Peace Bridge. The only thing the Sabres do right is send their players to good organizations so they can win. Its disgraceful.
@@PWiz30 cale makar, Dallas 1st round picks( can’t remember how to spell their names) and Jeremy swayman i would take over him right now today. Swayman is the only one I would argue could be under hisher. Also I said by the end of there careers so in about 15-20 years from now. Just remembered that Jason Robertson also was in this video so make that 5th-6th instead of 4th-5th.
I see a lot inspiration from urinating tree in your videos and I fw it
Absolutely. Hear it in his vocal delivery even. Unique in himself nonetheless though.
Urinating tree is trash
I watched his 2016 recap video and thought the same thing, hopefully this guy pops off
@@Brn934 U only don't like him bc he calls out ur sorry ass boys club
@@Brn934 insane take

Nolan Patrick is still young enough to make a comeback. Let's hope he succeeds.
He can t take a hit without getting hurt......
Yea he’s injury prone but it’s a sad story
If he can't make a comeback within a year or two from now, then he's not going to be coming back at all.
Love the P5 background music
Couldn't be happier to have Nico on the Devils. He has great character and leads by example. One day he'll make a mockery of any redraft that has him below #1, i truly believe that.
He might be a good player, but he isn’t as good as Makar and some of the other players

the cal foote section 😭😭😭
Found my new favorite hockey channel.

been watching your videos for a while now glad to see your starting to get the recognition you deserve!
This was a great video, hope the channel grows even more!

Newly subscribed. Glad your channel is blowing up! Thanks for the upload man!
Loving the format, well done
Perfect hockey video for the middle of the off season.
Tuned in last night fresh after your upload. Great stuff. Quick and to the point; snappy from player to player. Great little idea. Subbed and will stay tuned.
Quality content worth watching
Really nice work on this video. The editing and the script moves along at a great pace.
I didnt know this channel, you have a new follower.
Great detailed video, looking forward to more!!
“Kostin never found a place on Edmonton” broski what? He had 11 goals in like 54 games, and was a solid depth piece in the playoffs. He was good here.
You should definitely do this for every draft year!
Another top tier vid. Thanks!
Stumbled upon this video. Great work! Subscribing! Very good quality and entertaining
Great video man I just subbed, keep going I can see you getting up there with Eck and Johnny Hockey
Bob MacKenzie's comments on Makar are crazy in retrospect. I mean, my Canucks have Quinn Hughes but given the choice...I still pick Makar.
I love this channel
Dude, you need more subscribe, your content is great ! More recap of past draft would be nice ! It's a fun format !!
Really great vid keep it up
Love the Persona music in the background! Keep up the good work

Persona and nhl analysis I am such a dweeb and I feel marketed to

Yeah you’re right it’s easy to say now that Makar should have been the first pick but at this time it was Hischier or Patrick
Going into that draft I really wanted Nico but thought for sure they were gonna blow it and pick Patrick.
I would love more of these
Necas can’t get offer sheeted. He elected for arbitration. Also Rod and Tulsky said in an interview today he would most likely stay in Carolina
Kid is the new grifflix, great video buddy keep it up
Makar amazing, 3 teams kicking themselves
Love the Persona music. As a flyers fan, great song choice for Nolan lol.
really good video i see a combo of a ton of styles, i love your mix quality too, also i see so many ppl with hockey videos with tons of views but the channels have no subscribers, i think it might be time for me to make a 2018 caps retrospective

This is what we were told at the time.
7:00
He's also probably the best penalty killer on the team, aside from Compher, and brings great physicality, if only he can find his scoring touch
I love the usage of punch out and smash music
yea hearing 2017 was 7 years ago is terrifying. but excellent video
Great video
This is very grifflix like. But I love it. Keep it up brother
a hockey video with persona music is peak
A healthy Josh Norris would feed families😭
as a Sens/Golden Knights fan I see the see the Stone trade as a absolute win
I KNEW the flyers should have picked makar.....patrick had a history of injuries............they threw the #2 pick in the toilet...
thanks so much hextall..........
You forgot to mention that EP40 won rookie of the year. 🏆
What a great draft for the Stars
Cody Glass doesn’t seem well off after this past season, and Middlestat has proven himself to be a solid pick for a while now, definitely a TOP 6 player.
Poor Nolan man.
Based music choices 🫡
As a Lightning fan, I was not expecting a reference to Lightning defenseman Nick Perbix. Nice.
Here before you're a big ass channel
I was there. I have always had a close following of these guys. Shame some didn’t pan out
Nico looks like a future selke trophy winner. He’s got that sort of Barkov type game.
Pierre Dorian absolutely demolished Ottawa. Hope they turn it around this season!
that player is right, makar is mid at defense but good at offense. heiskanen is the more all around defenseman
You can’t just sneak in Fire Emblem Engage music and expect me to not hear it
Islanders trading away their pick because of the expansion draft was...oddly the right move. However, Garth Snow would've probably bungled this pick as well
Nice vid!
Great channel! And video! Lmk if you want to do a hockey podcast!
w for using smash and punchout music in the background
A vid well done
Don’t think a team has ever drafted better than Dallas in 2017.
Poehling was never a cap dump lmao
bandits legend, everyone from Brooks ab is a avs fan now
I like the Punch Out background music!😁
Sleeping on liljegren, just because he’s not the high end offensive player people expected, he actually has great steady 2 way play
If the Stars doesn't have a Cup but the Avalanche do (with their 2017 draft pick winning Conn Smyth) does that really mean the Stars won the draft?
How did detroit not take Nick Suzuki
Mike Tyson's punch out music in the background. 😆
Damn, Mackenzie couldn't have been more wrong about anything ever. Makar is now arguably the best D-man in the league.
miro heiskanen and cale makar is like that one jeremy clarkson clip: I like this (makar) but this is better (heiskanen)
How could you possibly feel bad for a guy as entitled and snobby as Patrick
Please do 2015 next
PERSONA MUSIC USED
PERSONA MENTIONED RRAAAHHHHHH
2015 draft next?
LEGOOOO
Makar is a fourth forward. Probably better than Orr.
I think skinner would of been drafted way earlier
Miro or makar should of been 1st overall or 1st and 2nd
As a Sabres fan any TH-cam “Draft revisit” video just makes me wanna jump off the Peace Bridge. The only thing the Sabres do right is send their players to good organizations so they can win. Its disgraceful.
Smoothzuki
You like send let's go I love send do
Det lost this draft hard
Man Philly lowkey a shii hole but they looking good soon.
nolan is retired
Draft change stupid lets be boring like all the other sports
Hot take nico hisher by the time of retirement could be out of the top 15 in a redraft.
Nico goes 2nd or 3rd in a redraft. 😂
