Player draft years

I'm naturally not sure of the difficulty of coding this and I could see some difficulties in displaying the info depending on how many drafts a player is generally eligible for, but I think it could be handy if somewhere on a player profile it would show what years he is eligible for drafts in various leagues.

If I'm glancing through a free agent list for instance, it would be informative if in the 'draft' section under a player's 'contract' page showed not just times he was previously drafted but also list future leagues he was going to be eligible to be drafted in and in what year that draft would take place. It would help getting a feel for how strong upcoming draft years will be if one chooses to look through junior leagues across the world, or just the young players in the free agents list since it tends to include everyone who's rights arn't owned in your current league. If I for instance am not too fussy on my options for my first round pick this year, I could see if I can trade it for a first on a different year and have at least a vague idea of if I should grab one the next year or the year after that if I want to put the legwork in.

I also like playing historical 1970 games, since I'm a Canucks fan. The NHL and WHA both changing draft dates so often, it might be of use to see which team gets first dibs when on different players. I know this all can be figured out manually by birthdate and league rules, but with all the different historical league/dates and number of leagues in modern games that have draft it would be a nice quality of life to help one inform himself.

I understand that this is far from the most important feature in the world, and I can see there being issues getting this to display with the modern NHL for instance having players eligible for multiple draft years if they're not picked in the first draft, but I at least wanted to put it up for consideration.
