Well, at first I thought they might have only listed each team's top 3
picks over the last 3 years - but that can't be true.  I found the
following from the archives (doing a search on "Alvey"):

Now you know the rest of the story. :-)
 
Apparently THN thinks more of Bates (4th rd) and Paquette than of Alvey.
On the other hand, I found a post from December in which it was said
that Alvey was off to a good start with LSSU and was impressive - this
from LSSU season ticket holders.  I don't remember him making that
much of an impression, however, the few times I saw LSSU on tv or in
person this season.
