I was talking about the lottery, not your team overall. Landing just outside the top-4 suxxxx.

 

Top 2*

 

It's like Boxy missing out on Tanaka and Abreu.

I take Patches easily over Gibson + 6th. Unless the 3rd piece was really good, he dodged a big bullet.

 

it was Leon, lol

Yeah, there are two big drops. Missing out on McEichel sucks, but at least Marner and Strome are 1st overall picks in most years.

Meh, I'll be surprised if Draisaitl is ever all that valuable in this league.

Passing judgement a little early, eh?

I'll get atleast one.

We shall see.

 

FWIW, I'm not saying that you made a bad deal. I just think the Gibson + 6th OV + Draisaitl for a 27-year old 35-goal guy is fair. The deal looks much, much better than it could have with more lottery luck.

It also depend on who I pick. If who I pick turns out to be the next Zach Hamill, then it looks bad. If I luck out with someone like, say, Dave Pastrnak, it looks fine or better.

Sure the trade looks like like Spittin got the better end now but in the same position as Frag I would pull the trigger 9/10 times. If that pick was top 4 it tilts a ton in his favour.

 

Yeah, you need to judge trades in context. By the same token, it's not fair for Frag to say "if I pick a Pastrnak" then it will be worth it.

 

It was a pretty good haul in context. Draisaitl and Gibson are both, like, top 15 prospects. The chance at a very high pick made it just fine for an elite player.

Yeah exactly. Now if a player breaks out after you trade for them the owner deserves credit especially if they were forecasting that.

Palat out for 2 to 3 weeks with an injury, Andersen/Hutchison/Hiller are all having jobs being partially taken over by other goalies (Gibson, Pavelec and Ramo). Not looking like this will be my playoff run.

Of course one of the worst teams in NHL history scores on Holtby five minutes into the game. FML.

Yes. You probably could have traded him for something and made the playoffs, but you didn't. :(

Its going to be hard to battle back from such a strong start. The SO was huge for you not to mention your players went HAM.
