you got to rember tho when the league did the draft way back when Aebischer was still looked at as a good player so taking him then probley was the right move but of course now it looks really bad lol

Kinda like Robert Esche at #19. Probably the worst draft selection in the entire draft.

I looked through San Jose selections....saw the GM replaced....at least twice....the guys went hot and cold with the picking
Heijduk and Kippersoft in the first 2 rounds
Round 4 Radim Vrabata (never recall him being THAT good)
Round 5 Peter Bondra (obviously in no mood for long term building)
Round 10 Andreas Johansson (was he ever any good?)
But then Andy McDonald's picked in like Round 12
One of the best picks of draft though(in terms of guys who were left for me to take over with)
Round 40 Dennis Wideman

Nowhere to go but up |

The Vrbata pick was the worst pick in the entire draft IMO... IIRC Vrbata was playing in Carolina at that time and would have been available in round 15+. I think the GM resigned shortly after that pick.

He was said already on the first page by the original canes GM.
Some additions though
of course how can you forget the biggest steals...
27. New York Rangers- Jose Theodore G
32. Florida David Aebischer G
but seriously.
468. Tampa Bay Zach Parise F
469. Philadelphia Ryan Miller G
456. St. Louis Dominik Hasek G
528. Tampa Bay Ryan Getzlaf F
Of course I don't think there can be complaints about the player pick last in the draft.
1193. Los Angeles (from Detroit) Peter Bubaj G
I'd call that a bit of a steal...
