What are our odds if we win the first two? Lose them? Tie them? Figure that one out. To me the first round is irrelevant to the odds of the draft, which will always be 12.5%. We either get there or we don't.
Who cares though? Clearly that would change. But as of today, we're the most likely out of the 16 teams to qualify for those 12.5% odds, and so as of today we are the team with the greatest likelihood of ending up with Lafreniere. It's obviously close with other teams too - but that's still a much more realistic chance at landing Lafreniere than I felt we've had at any point since the 2019-2020 season started a year ago.
I'm happy about that, since I've always felt landing #1 overall was a pipe dream - today it seems actually possible. Clearly others are offended by that sentiment though.
