Paraphrased from something I found on Reddit Hockey:
Prior to this weekend’s draft, 17 forwards have been drafted 1st overall since 1993. Of those 17 forwards, 13 of them lead their entire draft class in either goals, assists, points, or all three.
So, only 4 of the forwards drafted 1st overall since 1993 are not the leader among their draft class in any of those categories. 3 of those 4 were drafted by Edmonton (Hall, RNH, and Yakupov).
