"Weapons grade offense"  was your quote I think lol.  Something, something, multitalent superstar.  Ubermensch. 

Seems like you might have got caught up on the HYPE my man.  Better hope he's the next Kane, and better hope your "chess prodigy" outscores Kakko next year or else I'm going to talk MAD s***.

I'll see you in hell, Kakko-smoocher.

You said hopefully he falls to us at 38 implying we f***ed ourselves to a 7th pick and I said 33 cause I’m still hoping Gary rigs the draft  to help  fill up little caesars arena lol

Does the lottery also impact on the later rounds?

Impacts where we pick in the later rounds , If we get 8th overall we draft 39 we get 2nd we draft 33 which can be a big difference in helping us land someone who slipped out of the first round or not 

[Dabura 12,207]

The lottery only impacts the 1st round. Beyond the 1st round, pick order is determined by the end-of-season standings.

Unless things have changed, I'm pretty positive the lottery only affects the 1st round

This.

Also, I said 36, not 38, meaning I think we will finish right where we are now, 27th. I do think we'll move up in the draft lottery, but that only effects the 1st round, not the later rounds.

Don’t know how I’ve never paid attention to that , guess since it never affected us lol

Well that sucks balls 

 

if the islanders don’t win the division and get knocked out right away as the first team they get 15th so we get 46th right?

hoping sharks and islanders get knocked out asap , rather get 45-50 picks instead of 55-60

Nope, that's not it

If we tie either the Oilers or the Ducks how is our draft position decided?

First tie breaker is ROW, which they would both have over us, meaning we finish lower in the standings (higher lottery odds).

[HoweFan 74]

Ok so we cant catch the Ducks and if the Oilers get one point we can't catch them.  Worst we can do is finish in the 7 spot.

I resent your reference. Putin is a solid leader.

He’s taking on legit bad guys in Syria...Watch some YouTube videos on Russian attack helicopters in Syria for a good laugh...Those pilots are cray-cray.

Whatever the case he should take full of advantage if green gets to a hot start and move his ass around the holiday season to avoid injuries if he can land a 1st rd pick , it would be a big mistake if we miss out on the opportunity of adding a 1st in 2020

 

sadly just saw limited ntc till feb 1 ... well we ship his ass feb 1 

A smart GM trades a player when he knows he can get the most back. You dont expedite a trade because u fear an injury. They're completely unpredictable.

Clownland is a fictional place where the Red Wings only win meaningless games to troll their fanbase

Quote

1. Jack Hughes, 17 years old (5-foot-10, 170 pounds), C, USA U-18 (USHL)

2018-19: 41 games, 23 goals, 63 assists, 86 points, 18 PIM, plus-32, 203 shots on goal

Best assets: Compete, skating, hockey sense

Possible NHL comparable: Jack Eichel, Buffalo Sabres center; Connor McDavid, Edmonton Oilers center

NHL Central Scouting analysis: "He's a unique player. He has an unbelievable motor, great speed, but a stride not too dissimilar from Jack Eichel in that he generates speed with a lot of motion and a good core. His ability to be elusive in traffic is similar to what Connor McDavid does; he's not afraid to challenge that opening that others may not be able to get through because he sees beyond with the opportunities there."

Clayton Keller 3.0. Hard pass.
