GDT: NHL 2023 draft 🎲 lottery 🎲 5pm PT, ESPN - Ducks will select 2nd overall

[Kalv]

Here we go... we have the best odds but obviously, it's a very open race. I suggest using Tankathon as your go-to place today. They have everything, from rules explained simply, to lottery sim, etc.



Funny that we hold the best odds for all top 3 picks (but most likely we pick #3. Highly likely, even...)

Rules (short):

Share your latest draft sims, let's get depressed together

All I ask is no Hawks/Sharks/Canucks lotto wins.

Us getting Bedard would be nice though. Just saying.

 

[JabbaJabba]

It's finally here, the lottery. If Anaheim gets the 1st pick we know who they'll be picking next month. If they get 2nd or 3rd pick, we are going to speculate the next 1,5 months. I don't know what to feel.

This is our Stanley Cup Final. Anxiety will be through the roof as Bill Daly opens that 3rd overall envelope.

Next two months will be fun though as the Carlsson and Fantilli (and Michkov) camps form stronger foundations here.

Any streams other than ESPN tonight?

I’m nervous as hell right now, about the same before Game 1 of the playoffs.

First tankathon sim had us dropping a spot and SJ winning. Using that jinx moment now

 

[Dryish]

We're picking second. Have fun watching, everyone.

 

[Arthuros]

I'm gonna hate this.

 

[LiveLaughDucks]

This is gonna be a long and unproductive day at work for me.

 

[dracom]

I had a crummy birthday yesterday, so I'm hoping today can make up for it. please hockey gods...

 

[Anaheim4ever]

If the TV starts comparing Bedard to Kane he's definitely ending up on Chicago

 

[BringBackTheIceman]

This atrocious season will be worth it once Daly reveals the number one overall. Positive vibes only

 

[anezthes]

Happy draft lottery day everyone!

Hopefully getting up at 3 AM will be worth it.

 

[dracom]

ran the sim once and only the Blues jumped to 2nd. let's just leave it there and call it a day.

 

[jiggsawpuzzle35]

Please god, please don’t make me smash my remote in anger tonight. You owe us for Bobby Ryan.

 

[Mr Rogers]

The Penguins are free to win the lottery for the 1OA pick tonite.

 

[FiveHoleTickler]

This is gonna be a long and unproductive day at work for me.

 

[JiricekSaveUs]

Let’s go. Big day

 

[Vipers31]

The time change is actually gonna save me, as I’ll get home in time from an outrageously scheduled (10:15 PM faceoff) game one in my rec league‘s best-of-three final series.

Looking forward to getting the draft lottery over with - my attempts at manifestation via NHL23 have had me using Bedard with Zegras and McTavish for some time, I hope that’s gonna cut it on my end.
