Quick Facts General information, Date(s) ...

First overall pick Alexandre Daigle is widely regarded today as one of the all-time greatest draft busts in NHL history.[1][2][3] Regarding his draft position, Daigle uttered the now infamous comment, "I'm glad I got drafted first, because no one remembers number two".[4] Chris Pronger, selected after Daigle with pick two by the Hartford Whalers, was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2015.

The last active player in the NHL from the 1993 NHL entry draft was Kimmo Timonen, who retired after the 2014–15 season right after winning the Stanley Cup with the Chicago Blackhawks.
