The Toronto Maple Leafs 2010 Draft

The Leafs didn’t have a 2010 1st-round pick (thanks Phil Kessel/Brian Burke!) so Brampton-native Tyler Seguin and his career 80.3 Point Shares (PS) falls to Boston (all stats are from hockey-reference.com).

And because the hockey gods continually like to crap on Toronto, this draft is pretty stacked and every single first-rounder ended up playing in an NHL game (Yes, Mark Visentin and his one game played still counts).

Here is how the Leafs drafted, with the overall selection in parenthesis:

Brad Ross (43)

Greg McKegg (62)

Sondre Olden (79)

PetterGranberg (116)

Sam Carrick (144)

Daniel Brodin (146)

Josh Nicholls (182)

Here is how the Leafs should have drafted:

Tyler Toffoli (47)

Radko Gudas (66) REAL truculence, Brian 

Philipp Grubauer (112)

John Klingberg (131)

Brendan Gallagher (147)

Mark Stone (178)

Frederik Andersen (187)

Other notable names available: 

Ryan Spooner (45), Calle Jarnkrok (51), Jason Tucker (59), Bryan Rust (80), Joonas Donskoi (99), Zach Hyman (123), Petr Mrazek (141)
