Prospect Info: Draft 2025: Is it too late to tank? Asking for a friend

[Ryder71]

It will equal Anaheim which means the next tiebreaker is wins and Anaheim will have more.

Pretty sure ROW's are decisive tie breaker as posted above.

 

[Guins71]

Do you have Ryder on ignore or something

Let me clarify, my post was directed at Ryder and Guins71 for the "they're too busy cheering on meaningless goals" and "there are only 8 good players in the draft" posts.

Were the meaningless goals worth it for you? Sorry I’d rather pick 4th in this draft over 8th or 9th in this draft which is what every common sense fan should want

 

[Ryder71]

So close, damn! If we win in REG we hold 9th. I was right.

 

[Guins71]

I know it's been beaten to death but trading Rakell at the TDL removes that much more talent from the lineup (a PPG since the TDL iirc), gives you another 1st+prospect, and probably ends up with the team losing another game or two over the course of the rest of the season.

Razor thing margin for error. Just happy that this isn't a draft where they're potentially missing out on a potential superstar slated to fall like Michkov or Demidov.

Mind boggling decision to keep Rakell in that trade market

 

[Turin]

Pretty sure ROW's are second tie breaker as posted above.

Damn I was looking at the wrong numbers. Pens have 23 regulation wins and 32 rows. Anaheim has 24 regulation wins and 31 rows. Pens just can't win in regulation you're right.

Of course I'm right. You were all ready to throw a party but reality reared it's ugly head.

Maybe we'll get lucky tomorrow, but I'm not counting on it.

Which once again demonstrates that I was correct, thanks.

Anaheim has two more points than us, so a win tomorrow would tie. They have one more RW than us, so a win in regulation would tie. They have one less ROW than us, so a win in regulation would lose that tiebreaker.

We can win in ot or shootout, but not in regulation, or else we climb above the Ducks.

Absolute lunacy, yep!

Yep, we need OT or a REG loss.

 

[Jacob]

We should flip Rakell to Detroit for their 1st + Tarasenko. Then we’ve got our 8th and 12th-ish pick again and can Martone/Eklund and Martin/Spence.

We can take Tarasenko as a dump.

What is ROW on the Tsn website?

 

[Ryder71]

No they don’t. That has them tied in regulation wins, next tiebreaker is wins in general.

Even if the Penguins win, they’re tied in points and regulation wins but lose the total wins tiebreaker.

Once again you'd be wrong. You apparently don't understand how this works.

 

[Guins71]

Absolute lunacy, yep!

Let’s just say they trade him and receive 1st and good prospect and they lose 2 more games. You could have

Martone or Hagens
Top prospect
Mcgroarty
koivonen

With all possibly in the lineup next year with Sid mentoring. Instead, we have Ricky Rakell

 

[Ryder71]

REG + Overtime wins.

 

[PamBallam]

The curse of Derrick Pouliot means whatever top 10 guy we draft is gonna bust anyway.

Notice when EMP is proven wrong he disappears.

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Man now that draft picks really matter this place is gonna be insufferable moving forward.

 

[Rudy Russo]

Hoping for a Buffalo win and a penguins loss tomorrow night. You can do it Sully!!

Whatever you do in life, NEVER EVER EVER count on Sullivan to do anything but work against the greater good.

 

[Ryder71]

So, If we win in REG we are 9th OA. Anything else we're not.

 

[eXile3]

You know we’re winning tomorrow. Come to terms with it now bitches.

I need this kid to be a penguin like I need air.
Not even kidding.
