Dirty hit by Max Jones

Still big fan of the kid but might hurt his stock a bit

[Matthew]

Looks like I am either going to make skater games played, or be within like 5 games of making it. A lot closer than I figured it would be. I'm really hoping I can make it, as I'll owe a 2Nd and 3Rd I don't currently own if I don't make it. and 2Nd rounders are going to be in super high demand, given Shiv will owe 3, cliff will likely owe 1, and possibly Tyler as well. It could be a really costly asset this year to acquire.

Edit: shep to shiv

[kyuss]

does STL owe three 2nd rounders?!

[Matthew]

Sorry, I meant shiv, not Shep. Shiv lost his bet.

[Mike]

Oh cool, I have a 6.6% chance at a top 3 pick.

[Lee]

Oh cool, I have a 6.6% chance at a top 3 pick.

This would be the darkest time line.

brutal !

Arizona's GP situation needs to be worked out and then we'll have a finalized draft order.

With the results of our finals, Los Angeles takes the 30th pick of each round while Toronto picks 29th.

[thom54]

April 30 can't come soon enough!

[The BBKL Insider]

April 30 can't come soon enough!

April 30th will be a day us leaf fans hate forever.

[Mike]

Didn't watch last year, not watching it this year.

[The BBKL Insider]

Didn't watch last year, not watching it this year.

I just assume edm will win the 1st pick and the leafs will miss out on all top 3 picks.

I never watch the lottery

[thom54]

Leafs have 47% chance at 4th overall ... so yea that's the most likely scenario of any ONE pick, but 53% of a top3.

Fuck Edmonton.

[Nick]

It's more likely the leafs pick top3 than 4th. Really gotta hope we don't get hooped.

[Shoalzie]

Since I'm in the same boat as the Leafs, I look at it this way...I've got the best odds to get the #1 pick of any individual team but glass half empty says I've got a 80% chance I don't get the #1 pick. I'd be very happy with either #1 or #2. #3 and #4 don't get me quite as excited...I hope it doesn't come to that.

[thom54]

Go Scott!

[Arian The Insider]

Hopefully Toronto wins 1st and New Jersey second so I can get Laine

[Shoalzie]

Laine's stock continues rise. I'm becoming a bigger fan of him. I desperately need a franchise center so Matthews would be the natural fit for me but Laine would definitely be a welcomed addition if it came down to that.

[Matthew]

Vancouver needs 1St overall more than Toronto at this point.

[Lee]

Oh piss off you've had years and years of the Sedins and great goaltending. Not our fault you pissed it away.
