Toffoli, Pearson and why DL felt they needed another AHL test last season

[Trolfoli]

Pretty fun to look back at the draft thread when the Kings selected Pearson. I guess coming off a high of winning the Cup, it wasn't a very active discussion, but still an interesting read to see what was being said then.

And a discussion about Pearson on the Prospects board from 2011:

Thanks for posting those. Good reads...

38% of what? 21% of what? Just reaching the NHL? Being a regular in the NHL? If so, what's a regular by definition?

On average 22% of players selected in a particular draft year go on to play 200 games or more for skaters and 125 or more for goalies.
