Prospect Info: Draft 2025 - Waiting for the Draft Lotto

[TNT87]

Well that certainly sucked.

 

[SEALBound]

Really happy for UHC getting 4th ov. Good for them!

 

[plaidchuck]

It's so cold in the Burgh

 

[Turin]

what were the odds of us falling 2 spots lol

Worse than winning it.

 

[Guins71]

Cheers to all the idiots on here saying it wasn’t a big deal to win those late regular season games

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

THIS IS f***ING WHAY YOU END UP 5th AND NOT f***ING 9th

Who's gonna f***ing tell me that picking 11this is basically the same as 5th?

f***ing lsoers

 

[Ugene Magic]

Now we're talking .... I don't know.

 

[Pancakes]

I apologize for incepting the Islanders to the first overall pick boys.

 

[KareemTrustfund]

Man that was pretty intense for the first draw. Too bad the NHL ruined it with the second one showing us a pointless interview instead of the odds each draw.

Sucks we moved down twice

 

[WickedWrister]

All you can really do is laugh I guess

 

[vodeni]

Hilarious! So glad Sully went on a winning streak, it’s important to finish strong.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Love that for this team.

Sure glad we didn't move Rakell for a haul and lose a couple more games down the line.

Technically the Pens are not losers. They weren't f-ing losers enough. If they were the f-ing losers this wouldn't have happened.

I think this makes the Rangers more likely to give us their pick now but I guess we'll see

Small price to pay to slightly improve Sully’s career W/L ratio.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

Im so f***ing mad

 

[Andy99]

That sucks…we might as well trade down at this point

 

[vodeni]

And that ball #1 was the first one to pop up in the second draw

 

[PamBallam]

Yea, just what a team that's been picking top 5 for the last 20 years needed: another top 5 pick

How is that your conclusion here? Had the Penguins gotten another 3 points this year, they would have won the draft lottery.

If you're using the draft lottery as an argument, you should be arguing that they should have won a few more games so they would have won the lottery.

 

[Beauner]

What’s the NHLs phone number? I’d like to speak to the manager

 

[Sorry]

Move this pick for next year. And if the surfs give us their pick this year, move that as well. Get three first rounders next year.

 

[Pancakes]

Love that for this team.

Sure glad we didn't move Rakell for a haul and lose a couple more games down the line.

On the one hand yes on the other hand the funny thing about all the whining is we were literally 18% with the last ball to pick first overall despite being originally slotted at 9th.

Shows why hoping for lottery balls to bounce your way is a questionable team building strategy.

 

[Jacob]

Martin will likely still be there at 11.

 

[Malkinstheman]

I think you can pretty much forget about getting Eklund at #11. Pray that Martin is there I guess

It was all worth it when he got fired…lol
