True Value Targets and Kill Power -
Pittsburgh Penguins’ forward Connar Dewar celebrates a goal against the Utah Mammoth. Tenei koutou katoa, It’s your tenacious Kiwi limpet, back for another number crunch. If you missed the first article, True Value: An Apples vs Apples Scouting Tool, it goes into detail about how I went about creating the True Value metric, so please click the link to give it a read.

LISTA: ALLA svenskar som gått i förstarundan -
Förra året valdes tre svenskar i förstarundan. Anton Frondell gick som trea till Chicago Blackhawks, Victor Eklund som nummer 16 till New York Islanders och Sascha Boumedienne valdes som spelare nummer 28 av Winnipeg Jets. Det gör att vi totalt har 96 valda svenskar i förstarundan genom åren, och har goda chanser att nå tresiffrigt i år. Fyra till fem svenskar tippas nämligen gå i förstarundan i år. Totalt har två svenskar gått som nummer ett, åtta stycken har gått topp-tre, 14 har gått topp-fem och 31 stycken har ropats upp bland de tio första. 16 av dem valdes under ett otroligt framgångsrik 2010-tal för svensk hockey.
