2017 NHL Draft Discussion

Black ****ing hole!!!!!!!!!

 

[fsanford]

Yotes get screwed annually

 

[Reclamation Project]

Vegas goes at 6. **** right off!

 

[ru4reals]

Daaaaamn! Oh well. LOL COLORADO loses! hahaha

 

[KingsCourt]

Well that sucked

 

[Vamos Rafa]

Maybe another gem at 11 like Kopi...

 

[Reclamation Project]

Kings got boned.

 

[KingsFan7824]

Crazy lottery.

 

[ru4reals]

In a weak draft maybe we'll actually hit the lotto at 11.

Any players from China or Mars that could potentially slip?

Kings got boned.

How exactly?

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

I'd say Colorado got boned. Worst team in the league by far, and they drop to 4. That's a nice kick in the nuts to them and their fans.

This also feels like another Yakupov draft year too, nobody is getting a McDavid or Matthews.

Yeah sucks for Av's fans for sure.

 

[Reclamation Project]

How exactly?

Because I ran the damn simulator 25 times and the Kings finished in the top 3 13 times. They also won it twice. They got BONED I tell ya!

 

[deeshamrock]

I can't believe the Flyers jumped from 13 to 2. I would have been nice it's been over 40 years(1975 Mel Bridgeman who I never liked)
But 2 is great. Hopefully Jersey takes Patrick and the Flyers (thankfully it's Hexy and not Homer, he'd find some way to screw it up) will get Nico or Mittelestadt. I like what I've read on each, esp Nico.
Unless Hexy gets a good deal and gets moves down a bit.

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

Wonder if the Kings would've even kept the pick if they had gotten 3rd. Would've been a perfect opportunity to dump Brown on Vegas and move to 6.

Or the next Lauri Tukonen.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Why does everyone assume Vegas wants the league's trash? Vegas is in a perfect situation to succeed.

Brown isn't that bad. Solid 3rd liner. Perfect captain for them. He just sucks for the Kings. I didn't say Gaborik lol

 

[Docgonzo]

Just going off TSN top 15 rankings I'd be happy if the Kings ended up with either Petterson, Liljedren or Glass if he falls at #11.

 

[regulate]

Nice that 3 teams in our division fell 3 spots, Vegas, Vancouver and Arizona all dropped as far as they possibly could. That's good.

 

[Reclamation Project]

I'd take Gaborik over Brown, no hesitation.

 

[LAKings88]

So be it.

I think Vegas will suck as much as any other expansion team. Really just a lot of dregs to pick from.

Hope. And it's not limited to Kings fans. Everyone has Vegas doing their team a favor. Arizona and Carolina too.
