Post-Game Talk: 2021 NHL Draft Lottery | Canucks will pick 9th Overall

[The Vasili Jerry]

It's that time of the year and the Canucks are once again a part of the festivities. Will this be the year that the Canucks get lottery luck, or will it be the same story of moving back spots?

1 in 9 for a top 2 pick.

 

[Slapshot_11]

Expecting the worse result as usual

 

[Petey O]

I know it means absolutely nothing, but I ran that tankathon thing for the first time ever and we moved up to #2.

 

[AppleHoneySauce]

Imagine. If we had lost two more games we would be at like 5th. Moving down would at worst put us at our current location. If we do move down the team did it to themselves.

Edit: i cant count. Although i think losing one more puts us at 7 which would make my statement true.

Remember boys..we’re Canucks fans


Don’t go home with hope

 

[bandwagonesque]

Most of us have all but stopped believing it's possible, but one of these years we're going to win it.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Expecting the worse result as usual

Yep.

“The Vancouver Canucks have become the first team in franchise history to see their first round pick move back by three whole years. Not spots - years!”

 

[David71]

hopefully hockey gods are with vancouver this time around. with all the team has gone through this season, They're Due for a top 2 pick. i say they get 2nd spot

 

[canuckking1]

Every year Canucks fans think they're due and every year they drop spots.

 

[604]

Isn't AZ out of the loto?

If so, I assume it changes the odds of moving up or down a bit.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Would really rather not win this year, lets see this master scout at work.

Would really rather not win this year, lets see this master scout at work.

Also if we win we could only win one more in either 2022 or 2023.

ping pong ball = a sphere having a mass of 2.7 grams and a diameter of 40 millimetres.

Upon which our fate lies.

 

[Cogburn]

We end up 32nd some how.

 

[ChilliBilly]

We end up 32nd some how.

impossible. Being silly.

however it is possible that DimJim does something stupid and forfeits the 1st round pick. Of course that would only happen if we win the lottery.

edit - We could end up 32nd if we were offered a decent player, a late 1st and a 2nd.

On a more serious note, there may be some movement this year because its highly likely that there may be people off the board that have not been well scouted.

 

[Canucker]

This would likely be the worst year ever to win the draft lottery, so don’t give up hope.

No they're still in it - they just re-draw if they win.

 

[Bettman Returnz]

Would be shocked if we don’t draft 9th or 10th...

 

[LaVal]

Would just be nice to have a year when we didn't get bumped down.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Travis Green and Baumgartner will tell the Canucks ball to back down at the blueline in the vessel. The Demko ball will block all the other team balls but will finally be breached due to the insane pressure.

 

[Peen]

tbh, it makes no difference to me

no guys who can impact the roster next year according to just about everyone

 

[Hollywood Burrows]

the canucks are definitely winning the draft lottery this year and they're picking a guy who will completely bust. get ready

 

[LordBacon]

Thought JB would’ve said some dumb shit about the draft simulator about now

 

[Pip]

Sad that this is the most important day of the season once again.
