C'mon now, not even close.

The Stars had the 2017 draft where they drafted a top d, a starting goalie, and a winger that had 109pts in a single season.

Good draft for the Rags but not even top 10 of the last decade.

Stars 2017 beat them for sure. Dallas drafting has been superb. 2021 was a great year for them too

2017
Oettinger
Heiskanen
Robertson

I agree 2017 stars top 2020 rangers, but I think this is just being a hater. Would love to see your top 10 draft classes from 2014-2024

The real difference maker was a 4th line depth forward lol.

From that same draft class ottawa got

Sanderson
Stutzle
Grieg
Kleven

And if you want to throw 6 games in as a qualifier lol you'd add 3 other guys to their class


Also if you count it

Faber
Byfield
Laferriere
Grans

for LA

I'd say 2015 was in recent memory, and I'd sure as hell take McDavid and whatever other players the Oilers took in 2015 over that group.

So no.

Is this the best draft class for a team recent memory? How many other teams are playing 4 guys from the same draft class?

Laf
Schneider
Cullye
Bedard
It's a terrific draft but you should NOT have traded Bedard to Chicago. ;) Imagine what it would have been like if you'd kept him. :)

Is that even the best draft class from that year?

Stutzle, Sanderson, Greig, Kleven, Reinhardt, Merilainen
Could have stopped after Stutzle and Sanderson and it's still better than the Rangers class.

Hell, I wouldn't trade Raymond for the Rangers entire draft class of that year.

Top of my head

Coyotes 2021 draft looks like it will turn out great, Guenther, Doan, Moser, and a few other potential depth pieces. Their 2015 one was good too.

The Oilers 2015 draft had McDavid, Jones, Bear, and Marino.

Buffalo had Reinhart and 3 other NHLers come from the 2014 draft.

Carolina had a 2015 that produced Hanifan, Roy, Aho and a couple other depth pieces.

The 2015 draft gave Columbus 6 NHL players, Werenski being the best.

Boston fumbled the 2015 first round but produced 4 legit NHLers in 2014 (lead by Pasta) and 6 in 2015 (Carlo, Lauzon, Vlader)

Isles had 2014 with Sorokin and Toews and 2 others.

Detroit's 2021 draft is on pace to be a stud.

Minnesota had the Kaprisov draft in 2015 that had 3 other NHLers.

2016 Flames had Matthew Tkachuk and Adam Fox with a few others who made the show.

St Louis had a really good draft run from 2014-2017, the 2017 draft left by Thomas was better than the Rags 2020 one.

Vegas has their initial draft, Suzuki and Hague were taken among others

I'd throw in Ottawa (Stutzle, Grieg, Sanderson, Kleven) and LAK (Byfield, Faber, Laferriere) from 2020
