I can’t believe Florida and Seattle have a chance to both win their series.
I want to believe!

At this point I'm reduced to hoping that we get the 20th spot rather than the 22nd in the draft. Maybe I'm crazy, but i think it's actually a great draft to move up a couple of spots to get a good forward, especially if, as I suspect, 4-5 Dmen will be picked in the teens.

So who wins the Bedard Sweepstakes tonight? Where do you you hope he lands?

I have a feeling Columbus wins it but I would like to See Flyers win it
 
Would be kinda funny if the Canucks win it based on the lowest odds. (3% vs Ducks 18,5%)
 
Hope he goes to Arizona so all the "Arizona shouldn't even have a team" people have more to complain about

Is that even possible? I don't know how the new lottery works now

Yes. Any team in the top 11 can get the #1 pick, as long as that team hasn't won the lottery twice within 5 years.
 
Idk how you can say it’s not rigged….good lord

I think 2014 was the last straw, when Buffalo had the best odds but Florida won the lottery. After that it went: Edmonton (3), Toronto (1), New Jersey (5), Buffalo (1), New Jersey (3), New York Rangers (14), Buffalo (1), Montreal (1), Chicago (3). All the big markets/TV markets.

They’re an AHL team whose only prospects worth anything are realistically 3+ years away from being an impact player. When Bedard scores 50 points next year while struggling with being forced into the 1C role and smothered by every team playing with Athanasiou and whatever washed up veteran the Hawks sign for the other wing and getting feeds from the corpse of Jones and whatever 6D they play beside him, this thread will be unbearable.
Just insanity. There’s not a single player on that team anywhere close to qualifying as a top-line forward or top-pair defense. They don’t even have a top-20 prospect pool. The NHL just f***ed Bedard to an unbelievable degree.
 
Chicago will win 3 more cups before we get out of the 1st rd. This is why you f***ing tank. Now they are set …..again. All because they tanked

Totally rigged. Called it for the Hawks a long time ago. A dirty club who should still be paying for the criminal shit they swept under the rug.

This is all about TV ratings. Guess who you get to see every prime time game, moving forward.
