GDT: The Powerhouse @ NHL Draft Lottery | 2nd Overall Pick

[Rempe73]

Remember when everyone gave up on this team when they beat the Penguins? Lmfao and now they get rewarded for not tanking. Thank you, Jesus.

 

[Kakko]

1st overall picks follow Taylor Hall

So does losing

 

[Good Intentions]

This didn’t just happen. I’m dreaming.

 

[will1066]

My wife just resuscitated me. What happened?

 

[TheTakedown]

HOLY f***K!!! This is incredible!!

 

[ETTER DE]

Congratulations to you all. Fun to watch. Need a couple of hours sleep before going to work.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Let’s be honest though, it’s bullshit the Devils get a second first overall pick in 3 years and we’ve still never had one.

 

[Greg02]

Isn't this our highest-ever pick?

We drafted Andre Veilleux in 1965 at 1 overall. He never played in the NHL. We also drafted Brad Park 2 overall. He played in the NHL.

 

[will1066]

Suck it, Georgiev

 

[GAGLine]

Look I liked every post for 2 pages...then I saw Gag say "NJD won"...came back to my senses.

Had to unlike Gag's post (sry gag). Now none of you get any more likes.


But HOLY ****ING **** AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Lol. That's the only disappointment tonight, but I don't care. We'll still beat them.

 

[ElLeetch]

Hughes and Hischier down the middle is not what I wanted to put up with.

Both are lesser centers than in previous drafts (Matthews, McDavid, MacKinnon), so at least we got that going on.

 

[Synergy27]

So I’m ecstatic. My wife is ecstatic because I didn’t destroy anything tonight.

I have made a pact with her though. If the Rangers take someone other than Hughes or Kakko, I am legitimately no longer a Ranger fan. I will follow a team that picks players I like.

 

[bobbop]

Did someone really leak this?

 

[DanielBrassard]

This is very cool. Big help to the rebuild

 

[KOVALEV022473]

Kakko looks dope af. Hughes looks like a little *****.

I’ve got news for you, Shero hedged his words along with his body language, he might very well take Kakko.

 

[bl02]

I will personally take out Gorton if he doesn't pick Kakko in june

 

[ToMaLe]

congrats you guys on getting #2, oh and f*** the Devils!

 

[Off Sides]

I like everyone posts normally but especially now.

 

[nyrage]

Sens fans must be happy, too

I DON'T EVEN CARE THAT JERSEY WON HOLY SHIT!

Math is hard for some people D:

Hischuer isn’t that good, not a big deal really

 

[007]

Should I get my Kaapo Kakko jersey now? He also plays for TPS, my favourite Finnish sports team!

 

[TheGortonConspiracy]

So, so amazing

 

[aufheben]

The Rangers drafting Kappo Kakko might be it for Sam's NHL broadcasting career.

 

[nevesis]

Kappo isn't a NYR yet...Devils might pick him!

He's an amazing talent, and has size. Looking forward to the draft now.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

I DON'T EVEN CARE THAT JERSEY WON HOLY ****!

Yeah honestly neither do I.

KAKKOOOO MOTHER f***ER!

 

[duhmetreE]

Did someone really leak this?

LOL

The stream I'm on... A random guy in chat posted the order before it started. along with, 'thank me later #insider'

 

[Thordic]

Kakko is a huuuge win

 

[Edge]

Would’ve loved to have had that first, but this is a HUGE day for this franchise.

And frankly, this has a chance to be a unifying moment for 99 percent of this board. A rare moment.

There’s no debate who to take. It’s the remaining of Kakko or Hughes who doesn’t go first.

 

[Leonardo87]

Let’s ****ing GO!!!! Kaapo Kakko is an absolute STUD.

How’s that for accelerating a rebuild? I wanna know what Gorton’s good luck charm was.

I believe Hughes and Kakko are pretty damn close. This is certainly great news.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Kappo isn't a NYR yet...Devils might pick him!

He's an amazing talent, and has size. Looking forward to the draft now.

They need help down the middle in the worst way.

Well they need help everywhere. They're a f***ing train wreck.

Poor Hughes.

 

[eco's bones]

Not sure why people automatically assume the Devils will take Hughes. A lot of people thought they might take Nolan Patrick a couple years ago and they took Hischier.

 

[bl02]

We could have the best prospect pool in the NHL after this draft
