Looks like this is Bryce's round, with 4 picks in the best 15, including #1 (Goalie Bob) and #2 (Iafallo). Honourable mention to Jesse with three excellent picks in Pionk, Bratt and Vatrano. Kevin is the only other current GM to appear in this list with Trevor van Rimsdyk. It seems to be a trend that we are seeing the same GMs cropping up with some nice late round picks. I'm not sure if its just that they are getting lucky hitting on guys in these late rounds just because of the the sheer number of picks they have made over the years, or are these GMs actually good at finding the hidden gems in late rounds. Hard to say at this point.
