- Here are some All-Star players who have made a huge impact on the league, but were overlooked and drafted late!
Also, before you comment that Datsyuk and Zetterberg aren't in the video...I thought I'd make a video that had a few different players than the usual ones you hear about!
Thanks for watching!

Joe Pavelski, drafted 205th overall and has 429G-512A-941P in 1183 games and counting. Even though he's 38, he's putting up over a point per game so far this season, so he's not done yet.
Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg in the 6th and 7th rounds.
Yeah Datsyuk biggest steal by far
Agree. It's crazy how those 2 leave and Detroit falls apart.
@@achillesninja as for biggest.. just based on the numbers alone I think that goes to messier
@@marciimeris503 💀
Moose was a prick who couldn’t do shit without 5 other superstars on his side. Edmonton and New York are the case and point. In Edmonton he had Gretzky, Fuhr, Coffey, Kurri, And Lowe. He also had Lowe again in New York, along with Leetch, Richter, Zubov, Graves, Larmer and Kovalev. They all were in the midst of the best years of their entire career’s. Pavel and Henrik got to play with each other, a 40 something year old hasek, and an aging lidstrom when they won their Stanley cup. Lidstrom is the goat on defense, yeah, but that’s still a bit less help for something like that, messier was also chosen pretty early in the second round. So no, not that big of a steal.
@@Jesusluvz curious as to how people who can't read find the internet "based on the numbers alone" pretty sure that means looking at the stats alone but I guess we can consider teammates.
I don't care that you're from that shithole of a city Detroit, or the joke of a country Sweden. Whichever it is, objectively you're wrong. Sad because I really like Datsyuk and think he was one of the best puck handlers ever. But since we're looking at beyond the numbers. Didn't Datsyuk run away from the nhl half way through his career? And while we're saying "oh but teammates" should we discredit Gretzky? As without his superstars he couldn't lead the kings to a cup?
Uhhh... how did you forgetDominik Hasek? 10th round draft pick in 1983
Funny that you showed a clip with Pekka Rinne, but didn't mention him.
Predators legend with a Vezina, the guy was drafted in the 8th round as 258th pick!
Patrick Roy, round 3 #51 overall. 551 wins and 3 Conn Smythe trophies.
Brett Hull, round 6 #117 overall. 741 goals.
Luc Robitaille, round 9 #171 overall. 668 goals.
All because Luc "couldn't skate". What a steal.
And the list goes on and on. Really I wouldn't put goalies in any late draft since they are often the ones that scouts have the hardest time to figure out. Often, most experts say not to pick a goalie in the first round since it takes longer for them to develop.
@Denis Beaubien yeah a lot of goalies seem to get drafted really late, some that weren't even mentioned in this vid.
Dominik Hasek? Arguably the best Goalie of all time and was 199th
Niklas Lidström was picked 53:rd overall, Luc Robitaille 171:th, Daniel Alfredsson 133:rd TWO YEARS LATE (so he was actually like a 500:th overall pick), Glen Andersson 45:th, Doug Gilmour 134:th.
Fedorov was drafted in the fourth round but I don't think anyone considered him 4th round talent at the time. He went in the 4th round because of the uncertainty in ever getting him to North America. To come to Detroit he had to defect to great risk to himself and his family. Hockey was the last great point of pride of a dying empire. It was the one battlefield that the soviets had the most confidence in. Their hockey players were more than just athletes. They were important pieces of propaganda. The soviets were not about to give up the young talent it developed easily. If he was born a few years later than he was he easily would of been a top 5 pick.
Daniel Alfredson drafted 133rd 426 goals 682 assists and 1108 points with 6 all star appearances and Calder winner with a messier and Clancy if that’s not underrated idk what is
Lundqvist, Rinne, Pavelski, Roy, Hull, Robitaille, Zetterberg, Hornqvist, Datsyuk?!?, Lidstrom?
Lundqvist, Zetterberg, hornqvist
Kaberle arguably best Czech dman
The flames did not go to the finals in 1996. The made it the finals in 1989 when they won.
At 2:26, the flames last Stanley Cup appearance was not in 1996, it was the Colorado Avalanche that made the final that year but in 1989 against the Montreal Canadiens.
Detroit drafted Fedorov, Nicklas Lidstrom, and Vladimir Konstantinov all in the same year (1989). Vladdie was selected in the 11th round (221st overall) and would have been a HOFer if not for that damned limo accident.
If we are going to use Messier's draft position (48th) as a benchmark for a steal and include 2 goalies, this would be my list
5. Federov
4. Roy
3. Messier
2. Hasek
1. Lidstrom
I’m surprised you went with Richards over Datzyuk. Same draft year and Datzyuk was drafted later in the draft and in most 1998 redrafts, Datzyuk is number 1
Detroit Defensemen #5 Nicolas Linstrom has to be in the discussion.
Niklas Lidström
He was a third rounder 53rd overall. Not exactly a "steal". But an absolute legend? Absolutely!
@@andygilson1859 that is a steal though…
The biggest steals of all time are Brett Hull at 117 and Doug Gilmour at 134
I personally would say its Hasek, but Hasek never really played for the team he was drafted by
@@Orto4956 I don't think goalies really count when they are so random
Even first overall mcdavid is a steal
Lidstrom, Hasek, Lundqvist, Datsyuk, and Zetterberg.
Colorado and Florida played in the 1996 Stanley Cup Final
It comes off a bit silly to talk about players drafted in the 3rd round that had good careers like Richards, but there are so many HOF players that should be mentioned before him. Bure, Robitaille, bondra, Alfredsson, Gilmour and so many goalies.
Weird how Kiprusoff helped Calagary reach the finals in 1996...especially since the finals in 96 was Colorado vs Florida!!! Really don't think Roy or Vanbiesrouk would approve of what you said!
Patrice Bergeron was drafted number 45 in 2003. his career speaks for itself.
Personally, my favorite is Jesper Bratt, picked in the 6th round in 2016
Andrei Markov, round 6, 162nd overall in 1998 is another decent one.
Tbh the title of this video should be "Some NHL draft steals of all time", because none of the ones listed are even close to the "biggest" 😅
Some goalies are in. But the best goalie ever, drafted as 199th in 1983, did not make the cut.
I’m not gonna complain about the lack of Datsyuk & Zetterberg, but ya gotta spell my boy Sergei’s last name right!
Lidstrom is number one, no matter how you shake it. The (second) greatest defenseman of all time was taken in the third round.
What about Luc Robitaille best LW ever draft in the 9th round
1394 pts
Ovi better lw
20 in seconds I was like 🤨
How are datsyuk, zetterberg, Roy, or even Lundquist not on here
I heard Lecavalier hard convinced tampa to take richards
bro has quick & brown in this video but not lundqvist and lidström lol
Federov was only picked 77th because of hesitation on Detroit's part due to the Soviet Union still being around.
Eeuum flames first cup final since 1996??? You mean 1989. 1996 was fla/col
Zetterberg and Datsyuk? Go search for them... 210th & 171st
You forgot Pavel Datsyuk. Just saying.
Jere Lehtinen best player in 1992 nhl draft
Alfredsson? Datsyuk? Zetterberg?
Flames did not go in the finals in 1996
Umm he mentioned all the goalies that drafted before quick except one the one that went 5th overall Carey Price the only one that didn't bust other than quick
Why no Joe + Datsyuk?
Yea uhhhh flames didn't make the final in 1996 lmao
Jari Kurri.... drafted at number 69
Bure? 6th round, 113th overall
Flames made the finals in 96?😮
06 he meant
Dustin Byfuglien
and alfie ? :D
nice spelling on Fedorov
first flames final since 1996? did you mean playoffs? im sure you did, but jesus man review your stuff better
Federov?😂
The way you said LeCaviler hurt me
Fedorov, not "Federov."
Henrik Zetterberg draft 7th round 210th total , score 337 times with 623 assist for 960 points in 1082 games, Jaroslav Halak 9Th round 271 th total ,he Steal Carrey Price playoff And traded to not losing Price for nothing the 1st choice ,
Yes the flame made cup final in 96 were Colorado avalanche beat the Florida panthers
Seriously, no Datsyuk? No Zetterberg? Brett Hull? Robitaille? Roy? LIDSTROM?!?!?!
Kucherov? Bratt? Palat?
I bet that they include Juuso Pärssinen in videos like this in the far future.
Flames didn’t make the finals in 1996…
