Jesper wallstedt would be a good pick so we could have all the jespers - shvingter88
Agreed. Our jespers/60 will be way higher than any other team and should make us the easy favorite for the Jesper Cup. |

Palmieri just can't get anything going. Feel for the guy because he's been a player we've all liked for so long. - Pomegrant
Between the cap crunch, and his big dip in offense, I am sure he is not going to be thrilled with his next contract. Hopefully he pops off in the playoffs. One good outing post-season could raise his stock back up to where it was last season. |

If Vancouver gets 1 more point the lowest we can pick is 6, since there's only 2 lottery spots now. There's definitely a chance Luke is on the board when we pick unless Vancouver wins the lottery and jumps into the top 2. Hughes is the most likely top 4 D to fall out of the top 5 if we drop all the way back. I think right now i'd say the top 3 is close to being locked in with Power, Beniers, and Edvinsson. Then i think Clarke and Guenther would be next off the board before Hughes.
Odds are we'll be picking 4 or 5 though, so i think its a very high chance we can get Luke(if we're picking ahead of Vancouver) - vlongo4419
only 2 lottery spots, because of Seattle? or are these the new draft rules.. I thought they were starting the following year? |

My understanding was that they were awarded the 3rd highest slot. Anyone who missed the playoffs still has a shot at #1 overall, with odd tapering accoring to their rank. All this as-per tankathon.com, the completely unverified website. haha. But still fun to simulate and see where we slot.

New lottery rules, 2 lotto winners. There are additional changes as well going into effect next year. Kraken start at #3 and can move up or down like the rest. |

There were 3 new lottery rules. The first one is that there are only 2 lottery slots now, down from 3, which is implemented this year. The other two changes are that teams who win the lottery can only move up a maximum of 10 slots, and teams can only win 2 lotteries in a 5 year span. Both of those aren't in affect until next year
Seattle is just slotted into the 3rd best lottery odds and can pick anywhere from 1-5 depending on the lottery outcome |

Anybody know if Nico is suiting up for Switzerland tomorrow? As a degenerate gambler, I am liking the -130 on Switzerland vs Latvia. Latvia has lost the past 9 meetings, and if Nico is there, they will only be better. |

Might need to acquire Jesper fast to really lock it in. |

Sorry need to vent. This league's salary cap and LTIR are a complete joke. Kucherov missing the season but being fine for the first playoff game??? And the NHL has reviewed and it is fine? It's like the stunts the Blackhawks pulled a few years ago with Kane and then whatshisname being allergic to equipment. Why have any cap? |

The Canucks lose in regulation again. They have 4 games left to get that 1 point to pass us |
