minman 137 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 (edited) The S98 VHFL Draft has been completed. Official rules here. Thanks to @leandrofg for managing the whole VHFL draft process, as well as being the #1 player by ADP (Average Draft Pick), Maverick Goncalves. 11 Groups Drafted and I was curious to see what an ADP analysis of our favorite virtual hockey players would look like, so I kept track across all the drafting groups on who was selected when. ADP is an interesting stat which gives the collective feeling about where players are relative to others. It can be used to help you tier players in a fantasy football/hockey/baseball draft as well as see where the value is. Each group had 6 teams each picking with 3 forwards, 2 defensemen, and one goalie. No bench, no trading. Just one pick of players at the beginning of season. A couple of interesting observations as I collected this data. Most incorrectly selected player due to retirement: Harry Callahan @dstevensonjr Most confusing player for this VHFL draft: Obuz Schneider Canet du Bocage @Grape due to change of position Most correctly selected player that caused confusion: Severus Targaryen @Banackock due to retirement timing but still playing in S98 and a valid pick It looks like the Top 20 players were pretty consistently drafted (with the exception of 4 players missing one just draft and a 5th player being only drafted by one team). On the goalie side, given the number of teams and depth of good goalies, they were usually drafted in the 5th to 6th round. If you're really a data nerd, here's the S97 VHFL scoring for Skaters and here's the S97 VHFL scoring for Goalies. This table should cover every skater drafted, even if only one team selected them as Mr. Irrelevant 9% means just one team selected them, since there are 11 groups.

Edit: Fixed Erik Thorvaldsson as C(was listed as D from the S97 data) - looks like drafts did cover him as F. @Tetricide Edit 2: I had a Panda goalie marked wrong.

minman 137 Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 I think next season, I'll keep the drafted by one team separate since average is weird in that case.

And after this quote, I checked and actually I had incorrectly marked one of the Pandas and only one group did not draft Deadpanda (group 10) - Deadpanda should be 90% drafted.
