HF Habs: Flames or Panthers 1st Round Pick 2025: Part II

[HuGort]

Lots more hockey to go (agreed). Flames have played well. Not sure of the chances they slip to 10 or lower at this point in time. My guess is it falls 12-18 range.

Flames last 23 games only 9 are against playoff teams. They got Sharks twice, Arizona twice, Chicago, Flyers, Nashville, Rangers. Fairly easy schedule

They have 22 games left, 11 against playoff teams and 11 against non-playoff teams. If they finish the season 10-12 (for 85 points) they most likely finish outside of the bottom 10.

All I get is 9 playoff teams. How you get 11? Dallas twice ,Colorado, Kings twice, Oilers, Vegas, Jets, Wild? Canucks and Rangers are out of playoffs as of today.

March 17th and 20th respectively

Yup, they do. Just looked it up in NHL yearbook. I used AI for Flames schedule too and it gave me wrong schedule. Other day gave me wrong faceoff percentage for Kulich. Shows AI not as good as they say.

I averaged winning percentage of remaining opponents to get odds were Flames be drafting.

I still stand with my prediction that they will draft 11th

Flames have the 14th hardest schedule as of today.

A much needed win for Calgary tonight, moving them 2 points ahead of Vancouver for the last wild card spot. If they finish the season 9-12 they most likely finish outside the bottom 10.

Solid win by Calgary. Philadelphia was the real winnable game on this tough trip & they did it.

They've gone 2-2-1, which is pretty damn good. They finish it off in Dallas Thursday night then play Montreal Saturday in Calgary. Let's hope they have the "long road trip effort" going in that game as Montreal needs the win.

They move 2 points up on Vancouver, 3 points up on Blues, 4 points up on Utah (who hold the 10th OA spot).

Pick	OCT	NOV	DEC	JAN	FEB	MAR	APR
MTL 1st	8th OA	2nd OA	10th OA	12th OA	13th OA
CGY/FLA 1st	17th OA	20th OA	19th OA	17th OA	18th OA
MTL 2nd	40th OA	34th OA	42nd OA	44th OA	45th OA
PIT 2nd	37th OA	41st OA	46th OA	39th OA	38th OA

So our top picks all shifted down the draft order by 1, that's not the worst thing in the world and the Penguins 2nd improved one spot.

WTK's projected picks:

13th OA - Lynden Lankovic
18th OA - Cameron Schmidt
38th OA - Adam Benak
45th OA - Kurban Limatov
