No they don't get #3 no matter what.. at least not in the first round. If say 4, 5, & 6 win the lotto spots, they'd pick 6th in the first round but 3rd in every other round. I'm pretty sure the order resets every other round anyway. So, just another example, the wings will pick 7th round 2 and later no matter what happens with the expansion draft. Someone please correct me if that's wrong but I'm pretty sure that's how it works. Honestly, there's been so much shuffling and so many different opinions/so many players raising and falling quickly, ya never know. If we pick 7-10 and he's there though, that's who I'd expect and assuming all the top centers are off the board, I'd be happy with liljegren in the 7-10 range. I'm also a little biased toward offensive d-men though.

Ahaha! I do wonder who else was even available though.. did he really have much competition for the job?
-
So they owe us a draft pick right??

http://www.nhl.com/ice/draftprospectbrowse.htm?cat=1&sort=finalRank&year=2017 NHL released their final draft rankings with Mittelstadt jumping up to #3 NA, with Vilardi and Rasmussen (probably close) right behind him. Decent amount of movement from the midterm rankings.. this should be an interesting draft.

I wonder if Quick/Bishop is the best goalie tandem to ever miss the playoffs

2017 ECQF: New York Rangers vs. Canadiens de Montréal
amato replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
My fantasy football team is deciding draft order next season by assigning everyone an NHL playoff team and how far they get determines the draft order.. I got Montreal so I'm changing my vote to Habs in 7. Plus a Montreal/Boston matchup always sounds good -
Haha right? That got me too I just found it via google; I can't take credit.

04/09 GDT : NJD vs DRW : 5 PM ET Last Game at Joe Louis Arena

I want a big print of this framed on my wall. Awesome picture! -
Maybe that was before all the games were done? As it stands now, we can win a lotto pick or stay at 7 or move back up to three. Although moving all the way back to tenth would be even more unlikely than winning the first pick.. so our pick could be 1-3 or 7-10. Those are the possibilities. Here's a chart with percentage chances. http://www.tankathon.com/nhl/pick_odds

At least all the wings stuff will overpower the few banners that the pistons might have but yea, I imagine both teams' banners will always be up. -
Is anything safe anymore? Our beloved tradition *Mod warning post #94*

Good guy Al, always a crowd pleaser. Do you know what game that 36 was at? I'm assuming a cup final game but was curious what the record was the higher the FSD counter climbed. -

Can't wait for another one of those parades.. back on this series though.. been thinking about it a while and I think the rags win a long goalie battle in 7 games. -

FSD had an actual "octopi counter" they flashed on the screen a few times throughout the broadcast and the last one I saw said 31. I've also heard 32 and 35 from other sources. Wonder if there will be an official count released -
6.7% chance at the top pick 20.9% chance of a top 3 pick http://www.tankathon.com/nhl/pick_odds

Alright one last win to send the Joe off in style (or as much style as we can at this point anyway). Hope the boys give everyone there a good show. And ya know, also go buffalo and Florida for lotto reasons -
Kronwall gets to make his decision on what? Expansion draft, possible trade, LTIRetirement?

2017 ECQF: New York Rangers vs. Canadiens de Montréal
amato replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
Love a good original six matchup.. it'll probably be more of a goalie battle than anything else. Expecting a lot of OT in this matchup. -
Decent amount.. and what should be more hyped up games. Maybe he just gets more double and triple teams there than other places? His stats at world jrs and in the USHL (and obviously also high school) are good and everything I've read about him seems very promising. Obviously stats are only part of the whole story but I imagine teams play defense against him differently in high school. Like I said, I mostly think he'd be a high upside later top ten pick and also really want us to draft a center.. Time will tell if he can keep elevating his game though.
-
Other than highlights and looking at stats, no. But he has high offensive ability from everything I've seen/read and I just feel like he could be the kind of guy that gets drafted out of high school then excels afterwards; kind of how Larkin did at Michigan. Could also be a flop, sure, but I think there's a lot of upside with him. I also think we'll most likely end up picking closer to 10 than top 5 so I'm basing it on that a little too, thinking that patrick and vilardi will be gone by then for sure.. admittedly haven't looked into Cody Glass much yet though but he's definitely raising in the rankings at the right time. I'll check him out too. Tippett would cool too but I'd rather draft a center. well, that's unfortunate news. his USHL numbers are good though... I think I remember you saying that before though, how much did you end up seeing of him?
-
Interesting.. they seem to be dropping a little, wonder why. That would still be tippet in the first and Hague in the second though. Im still standing by wanting Mittelstadt in the first if we don't win any lotto spot (would also be good with Vilardi). But Hague in the second sounds good to me. Might even be able to trade back and still get him it looks like.. adding a pick in the process. I don't think there's a way to get all three of the guys you listed, barring any trades, but stranger things have happened so who knows.

I would love to draft first rounders every round too
