Assuming Mrazek wins 4 more, Detroit could have 7 picks in the first 85-90.

... Time to start researching this draft.

yea you're right haha, Has kenny ever moved up in a draft ?

Never in the 1st, but Kopecky, Turgeon, Liv, Filppula were all players they moved up in the draft to get.

Funny to think it would probably cost them at least both 2nds to move up a couple spots in the top 10, or they could have just lost another game or two during the season instead.

Maybe we can hope for a small injury to howard and go back to our losing ways. But i do wonder what we could get if we packed the 3 picks 31-40 and move up, what would that fetch ? 13th-15th ?

I'd be cool with moving two of the three, but not all three.

So, we have:

DET 1st, ~9th overall (so far, could get higher)
VGK 1st, ~24-27th overall (can't believe they could win 2 playoff rounds)
OTT 2nd, ~34th overall (from Smith-trade)
DET 2nd, ~40th overall
DET 3rd, ~71st overall
PHI 3rd, ~85th overall (if Mrazek wins 5 regular season games and Flyers hit the playoffs)
PIT 3rd, ~90th-93rd overall (from Sheahan-trade)
DET 4th, ~102nd overall
MTL, 6th ~160th overall (from Ott-trade)
DET 6th, ~164th overall
DET 7th, ~195th overall (pick comes back from Tom McCollum trade, because conditions (15 NHL starts for CGY) were not met)

11 picks. :cheers: Double firsts. :clap:

Basically 8 of which are top 100 too. Should mean that with just average drafting we have 2-3 wings in 3-5 years time. With a little bit better than average drafting we could theoretically have 3-4 NHL players. I personally hope they go for 2-3 d this year with top 8 picks and 1-2 centers.

That's quite a list of opportunities.

I'd feel a heck of a lot better about those picks, if I liked the staff making them.

Only 2 more wins for Mrazek now, that 3rd looking very likely.

Let's hope he carries then to the conference finals and then re-signs ;)

It's actually re-signs, meaning, "to sign (with) again". Resigns means, "to quit".

A minor detail, but it's always been a pet peeve of mine, when talking sports.
