2023 NHL Draft situation

[Kevin Musto]

Trading up when guys in mid/late 1st round are not all that different is waste of assets

There's a big difference.

 

[CallMeShaft]

Just because TSN is projecting Fantilli and Carlsson as 1B types doesn't mean that's what they'll become. It's a semi-realistic projection, but there are always players that exceed or fall short of these projections. 1B is a good starting point, hope (if we get either of them) that they exceed expectations.

 

[Malagahawks]

This winning streak is gonna f*** us out of Bedard and get us stuck with another one of Musto's boys.

What a disaster.

AHL Dynasty incoming!!!

 

[FourQuarters]

I did sone further research....in Chinese numerology 4 isxa very unlucky number...3,6,8and 9bare generally lucky numbers..

However this is the Year Of The Rabbit in the Chinese Zodiac...and so 4 joins 3,6 and 9 as lucky numbers vin this year..
Since and probably not good enough to finijsh 6th worst Hawks not goodcenough to finish 9th worst then gotto tank for at keastc3rdvorc4th worst pre-lotto which should bring us good luck.
Right?

Bro, I got a good handle on Chinese traditional cultures, but I literally didn't understand your logic.

Nobody does.

Just smile and nod.

1 and 7 are supposed to be unlucky numbers in Year of The Rabbit...

Currently Ducks are last ...whoever is last pre-lotto is not going to get Bedard.

You also know tge hokey gods are not rewarding the best Tanker...so you do notcwant be last.

2 nd last may be more neutral...neither kuckyborvunlucky in the Yearvof the Rabbit...

But whikex3 andc4care lucky so to isc6..and guess who sits in 6th worst now= VAN ..

Oh no! Bedard to his hometown and favourite team?

The hockey gods dare not be so kind to THEM...that woukd be about as bad to rub it in for Hawks fans as granting him to STL or Nashville in sone longer shot win.. It would increase Hawksfans misery index no end.


Worst scenario Van wibs Bedard and StL wins Fantilli ...Hawjks ans woukd be jumping off the roof if that disaster happens.

Hawks coukd be draftingv5thborv6th orcworse.deoendibgbif we hold onto 3rdcworstvorcrose morexspits.

It coukd be unmitigated hell...except if we finish 3rd,4th or 6th worst...sobetbibgvgidd will haloen...Eitgerxwe movevuo orcthevoick we do take exceeds expectations.

We do not wantvto finish last . THAT team will certainly not get Bedard and may not get Fantilki either..The hockey gods want to dispense karma to the worst Tanker team . . QUACK QUAC ????

 

[hawksfan50]

Huge Tanker toilet games tonight.

Ducks (last place ) vs Yotes (4th worst(


And Hawks (3rd worst) @ Vancouver (6th worst)

Huge standings swings on the line ..

 

[RememberTheRoar]

I guess Bettman hasn’t met Kyle Davidson yet.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

I guess Bettman hasn’t met Kyle Davidson yet.

Just like the secret poll where the fans think the moving digital ads on the boards make for a better viewing experience.

They're taking gambling money. He can't say anything but that.

 

[Bubba88]

Have a feeling we end up with the grand price Bedard or Carlsson.

The writing just progressively got worse. Not sure if you started to pound a shot after each sentence, or if your thumbs started to gain half a pound per word.

Leave 50 alone.

He's a town drunk but he's OUR town drunk.

You're free to go back to your own board.

 

[BHawk21]

Good night last night. Anaheim and Vancouver win and Hawks lose. Rather have ducks win then Coyotes at this point. Go jackets tonight.

Sorry. I will crawl back to where I came
from and leave your town drunk be.

If you were a regular here, you would have had him on ignore by now, most of us do

Lol oh. I got banned for talking about Dach in one forum. Sensitive topic I tells yea.
Just not sure I have ever seen anything like that in terms of wtf did I even read.

I still have not made my mind up on Dach yet. He showed absolutely nothing here. Maybe if Hawks had foresight to move him to wing like Montreal did, he might have developed a little more here. I still root for him to do well, he has far exceeded what I thought he was capable of

Meh. Least you guys are doing things the right way. The tank for a solid player way. Nothing worse than picking out of top 10 year after year and being stuck in limbo for the next 30+ years.

HF50 did mention one time that his fat fingers get in the way as he does his posting on a cell phone.... not that that is an excuse for the gibberish.

If he's listening: They do have talk-to-text these days which can be a pain but anything can be better than what we see on a regular basis.

 

[crazyhawk]

Much like a Bigfoot sighting's illusive nature I believe I had a HF50 sighting a few years back at a Metro Grocery on Beechwood ( in Ottawa ). He was wearing a leather Hawks jacket and was somewhere in the 55 - 65 age range. I just got that Fiddy vibe! My theory is just not giving a f*@$ about the misspellings. It's the male crone mentality coupled with an uneasy alliance with modern technology.
But hey I'm 63 so wtf?!

But we know he isn't listening. Or he just doesn't care. Either way, he'd have modified his behavior ages ago if he cared to.

@Naster Okan's handle is an homage to Fiddy.

Fiddy was trying to type master plan.......

Glad we are rebuilding for sure!

Dach was handled poorly here with shit coaching and being in the NHL too early. Probably would have a better trajectory if he didn’t have to deal with that.
