well if it ends up being tampa vs leafs and nyr vs devils in the first round then 2 teams that spend major assets are going to be bounced in the 1st roundWhat I find kind of funny is that with all the teams in the east loading up in that arms race, only one will vote out of that conference.
It’ll be a gauntlet of stacked teams in the East. That’s why I think the West will take the Stanley Cup.What I find kind of funny is that with all the teams in the east loading up in that arms race, only one will vote out of that conference.
Unless the avs destroy everyone and are rested and waitingGoing to be fun to watch the East be a blood bath and all those teams lose out of those picks & prospects they gave up for nothing. West is going to have it tough to compete when they meet
Whoever wins the draft lotterySo... who do ppl think is gonna get Connor Bedard?
I'm leaning SJ at this point.
Whoever wins the draft lottery
I heard the Leafs are trading for himWhoever wins the draft lottery
Should email Bettman to let him knowI just ran it and Vancouver won.
I'd be fine with that. I also wouldn't mind SJ. I'd hate the Habs or Hawks to win the Lottery. The rest are in between somewhere.I just ran it and Vancouver won.
Chicago wins the lottery.So... who do ppl think is gonna get Connor Bedard?
I'm leaning SJ at this point.
Ya, and it'll be the team that doesn't make any big moves. Carolina.What I find kind of funny is that with all the teams in the east loading up in that arms race, only one will vote out of that conference.
I don't think the lottery balls will get weighted in Chicago's favour, the league still is mad at that organization for the scandals they caused. Bettman's New York teams are loaded. Montreal only gets to draft first at home. It's Anaheim's turn I think.Chicago wins the lottery.
Then drafts 6 first and 6 second rounders over the next 3 drafts. (Plus 3 first and 2 seconds on 2022)

Signs mcdavid as a UFA and proceeds to win 5 cups in a row.
Recipe for a cost controlled dynasty except for that Jones contract.
That's the best thing that could happen because nobody wants to face them in the 1st round. I like the Jets chances a lot better against either Dallas or Minnesota.Avs will be first in the central pretty soon, 6 straight wins
If you look at the standings with all teams having played 58 games (where Seattle and Colorado are right now), first round would be Avs/Oilers, Jets/Stars, Kraken/Kings, Knights/Wild.I would love to see the Avs beat the oilers again. Was fun last year.
TORONTOI wonder which team in the Atlantic will have the biggest buyer's remorse come this summer.
I am leaning towards WC1 and cross over to the Pacific, if Colorado passes Vegas and I think they will. At least you avoid Colorado until the Conference Final.That's the best thing that could happen because nobody wants to face them in the 1st round. I like the Jets chances a lot better against either Dallas or Minnesota.
