So realistically, I think the best we are looking at here is a 3rd last finish.
I’ve looked at the names, who should we take with the 3rd pick then? You would think this should be a HUGE pick for us, considering we got Schenn at #5 last year.
If we finish with the 3rd worst record, that primarily means there are 2 teams who have more balls (lottery, that is) then we do!

Would Brayden Shenn be getting half the attention he’s getting(from Leaf fans) if it wasn’t for Luke?
I want Hedmen anyway

This may be a dumb question, but is the ‘lottery’ only for the 1st pick or can we move from 3rd to say 2nd, or 5th to 3rd etc. It’s only the bottom 5 teams that are in the lottery correct?

The talk out of Ottawa today just made them a tougher opponent to climbing the ladder (climbing? descending? I’m confused)…anyway, looks like they will be sellers!

Thanks LT.
The nhlscap one sure makes it clear as mud..wow. lol
I follow it though now.
Anyway we cut it, if we can grab a top 5 pick, this time without having to trade up to get it, I’ll be happy.
no no no!!this is not the right way to win the race for the Tavares Cup Leaf Fans by winning another game!! lol
