IMHO The bottom 6 should have the chance to get the top 6 picks shuffling down 2?spots max. Then in order as far as points for the next level. A playoff bubble team shouldn't be able to jump to top 6. System is grossly flawed Edited June 26, 2020 by AtlantaHotWings 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty sure I'd take that guy at 2 even, I'm feeling pretty good about Stutzle. Tough call though, Byfield is a specimen.

LeftWinger 4,936 Report post Posted June 26, 2020 my anxiety is a hot mess... I just know, dammit, that we aren't gonna get the #1. even though we'll get a quality player between 2 and 4, but we deserve that #1. The likes of any team 5 or below does not! If Pitt or Chicago et al... get it, then I just may have to stop watching. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Pitt or Chicago et al... get it, then I just may have to stop watching. I tell myself that no matter where we end up later tonight - there's a good chance Grand Master Y swings a few trades since the cap isn't going up, and a handful of teams are gonna have to move some players to be cap compliant for next season. That said I still want that #1. 2 Akakabuto and krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know, if the Red Wings win the simulation 2 out if 3 it doesnt magically raise the odds to 66%. Same goes the other way. That being said; I have done the same thing myself...

MabusIncarnate 5,344 Report post Posted June 26, 2020 I just want top 2, i'm trying to temper expectations knowing Ottawa has double the chance, and our chance at 1 is 18.5% which is a bit better than a 1 in 6 chance. That's still not favorable but it's definitely possible. This team needs a difference maker. 2 krsmith17 and Akakabuto reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
