So over a long period of time, NHL teams are basically allocating draft capital to match their team roster. HereвЂ™s a similar chart showing a roster of 13 forwards, seven defensemen and two goalies. And then it hit me itвЂ™s basically the composition of a standard 22-man NHL team roster. When I saw the results, I started wondering if thereвЂ™s any sort of logic behind it. Essentially, what percentage of the 2,100 draft choices in question were used on forwards, defensemen and goalies. The first thing I wanted to look at was the amount of draft selections used on the three positions. Without further ado, letвЂ™s go through the results. My goal wasnвЂ™t to create some ground-breaking analytical breakthrough but instead provide results that are easy to understand and maybe even remember. But I love charts and I love playing around with numbers on Excel, so thatвЂ™s what I did here. There are a lot of people who are way more qualified to do this type of an analysis. All data taken from Please notice that IвЂ™m not a mathematician or even an analyst. I took the first 210 selections from each draft (30 teams and seven rounds) to have comparable results from each year. That raised my interest, so I decided to use the same data I had already available to see what type of differences there are between drafting forwards, defensemen and goalies.ДЄs a reminder (or if you havenвЂ™t read the first part), I took draft results from a span of 10 years between 20. This is the first time the Blazers have had at least three players selected in the NHL Draft since the 2004 NHL Draft when the Blazers had five players selected.After the first article about NHL Draft Pick Probabilities ( link) was released, there were some asking for something similar but with different player positions being separated to see if there are any differences there.
