When you can't win trades, you have to win lotteries.

Now we're bad at both.

That must be Bergevins strategy here

 

[Raab]

Well if Montreal or Carolina is sitting at 3, is it worth moving RNH's to grab the pick+? Say 3rd+Danault for RNH would Montreal do it?

 

[RandomGuy79]

The difference between 9th and 10th is insignificant.

 

[BlackDogg]

At least Calgary didn't move above us.

 

[Frank the Tank]

There's a clear top-9, and yet usually one guy falls outside the expected top group. Nonetheless, not the result for which I'd hoped (holding at 9, barring a top-3 win of course).

 

[Tobias Kahun]

I hope buffalo wins, Hurricanes shouldn't even have a NHL team.

 

[McShogun99]

I thought forsure Buffalo was going to fall out of the top 3 lol

All 3 teams badly need the help, will be interesting to see who gets Dahlin

If we won a few more we would have been in Carolinas spot, lost a few more and we'd be in Montreals spot.

 

[Delicious Pancakes]

I don't mind those teams in the top 3. They could all use some help. I'm probably cheering for Carolina to win #1.

 

[Ck1]

This pick will likely be traded

 

[CycloneSweep]

f*** we 10

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

If Carolina wins, it has to make Faulk all that more available..

 

[McAsuno]

I swear I thought I saw Chia browsing on his phone before the picks got called. Still sucks we dropped a spot.
f*** Buffalo though.

 

[oobga]

Lottery is RIGGED!! We were ROBBED!!!

 

[The Moose]

As an Oilers fan, for at least the next decade I will not whine about the outcome of a NHL draft lottery.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

just draft farabee and move on

 

[Hynh]

This pick will likely be traded

Bleh, worst possible outcome.

 

[McRpro]

As an Oilers fan, for at least the next decade, I will not whine about the outcome of a NHL draft lottery.

Lol yup. We won the biggest prize for the foreseeable future. Still a weee bit disappointing but oh well. The best part is idc which of the 3 wins it. No hatred for any of them. Hmmm actually Dahlin to the Canes may pry one of the defenseman loose.

 

[McAsuno]

Farabee..mehhhhh

 

[AddyTheWrath]

So now which team should we want to win?

Carolina because their d become more available?
Buffalo if that gets us Risto?
Montreal doesn't really have anyone we'd want or need..

 

[VainGretzky]

Faulk is a garbage player that has been the worst defensive dman in the league for last 7 years and a big reason why Canes have missed playoffs 9 straight years, Do people even watch these players or just watch stats. Faulk makes us a worse team not better he is a pylon 5/5 literal pylon

 

[BarDownBobo]

Hope one of the teams above us decides they're desperate for a C and leaves one of the dmen for us.

 

[CupofOil]

I'm just glad that Chicago didn't win it, would have made winning those last two games even more infuriating.

 

[McIce Whole]

Well let’s hope Buffalo wins. They need Dahlin the most.

 

[McAsuno]

So now which team should we want to win?

Carolina because their d become more available?
Buffalo if that gets us Risto?
Montreal doesn't really have anyone we'd want or need..

Should be Carolina. Buffalo's been sucking and tanking for years and doesn't get the brunt of the crapping like we do every draft lol. To hell with Buffalo.

 

[CupofOil]

Hope one of the teams above us decides they're desperate for a C and leaves one of the dmen for us.

Could very well happen. I'd be very surprised if one of the top 9 doesn't drop.
