Biggest Draft Busts of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft
THN prediction: 39th overall.
Now, I'm a Avalanche fan, so I was excited to see who they would draft. When I heard "Joey Hishon" I spent the of the rest of the first round seeing people better than Hishon get drafted.

This selection has FAIL written all over it.
THN prediction: 85th overall
They could've gotten Kirill Kabanov instead!

In 5 years, this guy will probably stay unknown
THN prediction: 26th overall
Not that this guy is bad, it's just the list of defenceman that were way better than him. Here's who New York could've got who was ranked higher on THN: Cam Fowler, Brandon Gormley, Derek Forbort, Mark Pysyk, Jarred Tinordi, and Alex Petrovic.
I found this page by googling Connor Brickley bust. He came to Vermont as the highest draft pick since John LeClair. At the same point in his career, he's at only 40 percent of LeClair's goal production and 34 percent of his point production. He's been a huge part of why UVM has been a giant underachiever and disappointment the last two seasons.
THN prediction: 96th overall
Edmonton is another team that could've gotten Kabanov.
