HF Habs: Current Standings Thread: Last Place Edition (Top 3 pick Clinched!)

[MarkovsKnee]

I closed the other thread, as it was diverging away from the overall topic of this thread, which is Montreal getting the best draft pick possible. It is a tank thread.

This is NOT the thread to discuss former players that should be reserved for the Out of Town thread. Inappropriate discussion will get deleted, and has the potential for warnings for thread highjacking.

Current Standings: Montreal has clinched a bottom 2 finish & a guaranteed top 4 pick.

Ground Rules for this thread:
• This is the thread where you can cheer against your Habs to improve their draft position. Want to tank? This is your sanctuary.

• If you root against the Habs in GDTs or other threads on the Habs board, you may be warned for trolling.

• Don't bring your anti-tank arguments here or you may be warned for trolling.

• Tank you for your support

Management needs to step in and announce Carey is unavailable for this game.

Can't see management doing that. Hes worked to hard for a return. Needs to get some reps. I think its all up to carey how many of the last remaining games he plays.

For all we know its management that wants to show other teams that he's back at 100% incase he wants to finish his remaining years playing game with meaning.

Id sure be happy with a 4-2 regulation loss against Philly tho lol

 

[Gandalf The Habs Fan]

Losing the 4 games last week and yesterday was really important for the tank...we have a good gap with Philly and Seattle. I think we have 6 or 7 more pts at best. That should be enought to be bottom 3 and even bottom 2.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Really need to lose to Philly, don't want to have to cheer for the team to lose to Boston or the Sens

Hawks have the worst record in the league over the last 10 so likely the only really shot of the Yotes getting a W

Damn, NHL announced draft lottery odds:



Only 18.5% for finishing last!

The team that finished last can still pick 1st though is teams ranked 12-16 win the lottery, increasing their odds by 7%.

These are the odds to win the lottery... Only the 11 first teams can pick 1st, if any of the team between seed 12 and 16 wins it, last place still pick first, adding up to about 25%

Why? Habs can't score.

How does 16 have any chance at all I thought teams could only move up 10 slots with the new rules?

 

[Ezpz]

Those are the odds to win the lottery not pick first. From 12 and up they can only move up ten spots.

If 12 or up win the lottery they advance 10 spots and ranking upfront stay unchanged
Tankathon didn't update their odds yet but they take that possibility in calculation, shouldnt be long
if math junkies are here it can be figured out

That’ll go over well

So we have the Hawks playing the Coyotes tonight and even though I doubt the Coyotes win at home here this game is very likely their best chance at getting another win this season. The Hawks most likely will be officially out of reach for the Habs after this game but the Habs weren't passing them anyhow.

We also have Seattle at home against the Avs. Yeah I don't like Seattle's chances in this one.

 

[Frankenheimer]

So the new odds are different than those listed on tankathon?

They are.

Seattle and Arizona playing tonight in separate games. Nobody better be posting scores and angering the tank gods.

 

[CaptainKirk]

Every new game brings a new opportunity to lose...

That should replace the old “No Excuses” in the locker room.

Me: nothing to see there
Also me: no harm at lurking

If Andersen is injured and Carolina bows out in the first round, let's remember that we had their 1st rounder until Bargain Bin traded it away for a 3rd liner.

 

[Treb]

Odds are better than what Tankathon had, so it's good.

 

[TheYardMachine]

Holy moly the Kraken has started strong!

 

[Gravity]

Arizona is so, so awful.

 

[AyyoCully]

Holy moly the Kraken has started strong!

prepare to get flamed if they lose lol

We got some superstitious people in here.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Arizona almost managed to have 1min into the first period without getting scored.
They will probably make it next game!

 

[Doc5]

Seattle has Beniers (4 points In 4 games) and they might potentially add another top 3 pick with him too. I’d say it’s a pretty good start to their build

 

[Gravity]

The Coyotes are the worst team I've ever witnessed in my entire life.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

If only they did not f*** up their expansion draft. God that was painful.
I could have done better at getting actual returns
