Good night in the lottery race for the Rangers.

All of the teams around them either won or got a loser's point. Edmonton is 6 points ahead. Vancouver, 5. Big Win for Chicago bascially puts them out of reach. Detroit is on a 3 game winning streak and suddenly is only 3 points behind the Rangers.

And the shocker of the night ... Buffalo finally gets a point! Their 3rd point over the last 10 GAMES. The Rangers have a game in hand on them and the way the Sabres are going theres a good chance they'll be in a higher spot than the Rangers when its all done. Sickening.

However, the Rangers are now in the 5th spot.

Rolled the dice on Tankathon 10x.

7,3,7,6,7,1,6,7,6,2.

Top 3 pick 3 of out 10x. I'd honestly just sign up for #5, where they are right now. Kinda of ridiculous there's a very good chance the Rangers pick 6 or 7 and not where they finish. But thats the percentages. Oh well.
 
I know it's illogical and doesn't count for anything but I have a good feeling about the draft this year for the first time in a while.

I'm sure like many of you, I've developed an unhealthy relationship with scoreboard watching and tankathon reloading...

Important to remember there is little correlation of success at the #5 spot vs #7 spot, yah? And who's to say maybe it's the #7 spot that wins that Top 3 spot, yah?

And speaking of spots, #5 has a lot of lottery history luck. Maybe it's time for spot 6 or 7 to smack one out.

NJD 5th spot won in 2017 (Hischier)
CHI 5th spot won in 2007 (Kane)
NYI 5th spot won in 2000 (DiPietro)

2000 and 2007 were under the old lottery system
 
The 92-93 Rangers had the worst finish in modern Ranger history, 3-13 in their last 16, 1-11 in their last 12.

And you know how far that streak made them fall in the standings? Not even one spot. Ottawa, Tampa, San Jose, Hartford, Florida, Anaheim and Edmonton, probably the worst bottom 7 of all the 1990 drafts were so bad our epic tank didn't make a dent. Jason Arnott went #7, choosing him and not Sundstrom would have changed the course of a few teams.

rangers currently pick 6th...if we lose both games against Columbus and pittsburhg and the sabres and red wings go to overtime we get to pick 4th in the draft :thumbu:

Actually it would give of the #4 spot odds in the lottery. Which would give us a 60% chance of picking 5 or 6. Actually finishing 4th gives you like a 3% chance of actually getting the 4th pick in the lottery.

well at least we are now at the point where it is simple

get 0 points from last 2 games,
move from 6th to at least 5th worst record,

and if Det-Buff goes OT, to 4th


then hope that on Tuesday NYR can snag slot 1 or 2
