Official 2025 NHL DRAFT Thread

Interesting game tonight with Buffalo and Pittsburgh playing each other. Maybe root for a S/O win for Buffalo. I don't see it happening but might be nice for a Seattle win.
 
I think that's the bunny thing from that shitty Star Wars movie.

Tribbles?

Who is this Magua guy, and why is he using Big Toe’s avatar?

The good of Toe stealing my identity is people might accidentally think I’m putting in the work. The bad is people might think I’m too lazy to color code my rankings.

Fwiw the last time a top 10 pick was moved in a real pick swap was in 2008 with the Luke Schenn pick (NYI traded down from 5 to 7 to 9, so twice actually).
 
can we trade 3 firsts for mckenna's rights? like match 3 1st round picks and get a 0th round pick which goes into next year?
 
It’s easy to calculate the Flyers actions. Simply take the stupidest outcome you can imagine and then multiply that by infinity.
Sorry Big E….. if the stupidest outcome is zero, then multiple zero by infinity by definition is undefined. If infinity + 1 = infinity , subtract infinity on both sides, then 1=0, which is not true. Infinity is not a cardinal number or even a real/rational number, but a state of unboundedness. Calculus, 2nd semester.

But I do agree that their actions could be irrational or even imaginary like the square root of -1.
 
If the worst happens and Flyers are drafting 10th, my unpopular opinion is they should take a big swing for McQueen if there isn’t any really enticing players left.
 
What should I think of Jackson Smith or Victor Eklund?
Nice but second-best types to Schaefer and Martone. Moving up the standings to 8th might be that choice with all 4 top C gone unless we re-do a Luchanko reach for a C like O’Brien or Martin.

Or go for injury-prone winger in McQueen.

Not ideal.
 
What should I think of Jackson Smith or Victor Eklund?
Eklund looks to be better than his brother who is already a 55-60 point winger as a 21-22 year old. Obviously we don't need another winger, but i take Eklund above O'brien, Smith, Mrtka, etc.

I say if Schaefer, Misa, Hagens, Frondel, Martone, Des are gone, Eklund should be the pick
