Giving up 4 for 14 and 19 is terrible for Ottawa.

 

[Six Assets]

lol 4 for 14 and 19, and then use those to pick some Russians. perfect.

 

[BondraTime]

Yeah, extremely bad.

 

[MasksAreForSlaves]

You are wrong, even if it's an opinion.

I've tried that site, can't get to work but even so don't think I'm trading 4 for 14 and 19 if I'm Ottawa. I think if I do trade in the draft it'd be down from 22.

Isn't that your opinion? Or I guess it's Fact because you said it

It's a fact that trading 4th for 14th + 19th is bad for the Sens. Pretty simple really, one would think at least.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Seems to be a pretty big drop in quality after the first 10-12 picks. I'd rather have one impact player picked 4th, than a pair of 'maybes' in the teens.

Thing is with Ottawa, we have a ton of 'maybes' on the roster already. What this team needs is high end talent.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

If you make 14 Kotkaniemi and 19 Kaut maybe

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

This site is pretty fun.

 

[stempniaksen]

What a neat little tool. Your first mock couldnt have been further off though

 

[Xspyrit]

I'd rather have the 4th OA thanks. We have a ton of quality prospects already, so we are trying to hit an homerun. Better chances with the 4th OA pick.

Dear OP, please do us a favour and never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever become the GM of the Ottawa Senators.

Sincerely,

All Ottawa Senators fans now as well as all Ottawa Senators fans who ever will be. Even the unborn ones.




I'm sad that my work doesn't have an eye washing station. I need it. I need it badly.

 

[Micklebot]

Fun site.

Here's what I ended up with;

Zadina
Bode
Drury
Morozov (autopicked from this point on because idk these guys...)
Almeida
Henman
Tendeck

I'd be thrilled if that's how our first 3 picks go.

 

[TheBradyBunch]

I was very happy with my picks although there is zero chance it turns out this great for us...

Svechnikov (behind Dahlin, Zadina and Wahlstrom)
Kupari
J. Keane
Douglas

and then I just guessed.

Huh... so Carolina went Zadina and Mtl with Wahlstrom? seems a bit of a stretch... I'm either ecstatic that such an event could realistically occur, or disappointed to learn that the website in question's not the predictive tool I was hoping for when I was surprised to pick Zadina 4th OA...

Yep, draft went exactly as you laid it out. And I am gonna go with the latter.

Veleno also fell out of the 1st round, although I think that is less surprising than Svech going 4th.

One of mine let me nab Zadina at 4 and Wahlstrom in a trade up at 16. Not realistic, but enjoyable.

 

[stempniaksen]

1 (#4) Filip Zadina
1 (#22) Martin Kaut
4 (#95) Philip Kurashev
5 (#126) Justin Almeida
6 (#157 ) Luke Henman
7 (#188) Tyler Weiss
7(#194) Zach Boutillier

Ended up going pretty much all CHL outside of Kaut/Weiss cause those are the guys I have actually seen.

Any draft where we snag Zadina/Kaut would be considered a win in my books though.

 

[Upgrayedd]

Firewalled at work and doesn't appear to work on mobile for me, seems like something I would enjoy trying out from the comments.

 

[solidprospect]

Cool looking site, noticed bobby mac ranked zadina 7th and am starting to get worried because i like him alot.

 

[aragorn]

Not only would I not make that trade, I wouldn't select most of the players you have selected at those spots. I selected Brady Tkachuk at 4th OA.
