The 2013 NHL Draft was considered one of the best drafts if not the best NHL draft since 2003. Did the Edmonton Oilers make the right selection on Defenseman Darnell Nurse? Edmonton basically had the pick of several of the top prospects on defense besides 4th overall selection Seth Jones. Rasmus Ristolainen who they passed on may have been the most polished and ready defenseman on the board while Nurse has athleticism and upside.
This is possibly going to be an exciting class of defensemen to follow although it could take for many to get to the NHL. Seven defenseman were drafted from Edmonton's 7th overall pick through San Jose's 18th overall pick.
More goes into how these players do than their statistics but you can follow the statistics of these three players here for fun to start.
