For my own edification I have tried to compile a list of 1994 (with two
exceptions) NHL draft picks that are going to be in Div. 1 hockey next
year.  I attempted to pull this information from various posting as they
went by but I know it is incomplete.  I did not keep track of the NHL
team because I was not interested.  If people want to send me additional
information and corrections off line or on the list I will update this
and post it again.
 
I think we all should remember that being drafted if a assessment of a
young players potential to play in the NHL.  However, I think we have
all seen players who were outstanding Div. 1 players who were never
drafted and never played professional hockey.  It has also been my
observation that the NHL draft tends to place significant value on size.
From a Div. 1 perspective it over rates the skills of big players and
underrates small player.
