At this time last year many NHL "Mock Drafts" had Joe Colborne going near the end of the first round with the 27th pick or lower. Nobody had DU recruit Matt Donovan on their radar and he ended up being selected by the New York Islanders in the 4th round.This year, DU's recruits are no longer a secret. NHLDraftSite.com has Drew Shore going in the 1st Round (11th overall) to Florida Panthers. William Wrenn is projected to be drafted in 2nd Round (56th overall) by the Detroit Red Wings. Defenseman Paul Phillips is projected to be taken 3rd Round (63rd overall) to Blue Jackets.
Thing can change wildly before next summer's draft, but needless to say DU's never had anything close to having three recruits being drafted in the first three rounds.
