Senators' Dorion itching for draft lottery: Simulator 'part of my routine'
Pierre Dorion is one of us.

Raymond seems to be a wild card. I've seen him as high as 2 somewhere and then out of the top ten. I could swear in a bunch of rankings he was ahead of holtz, but now he's behind.
Back to the CHL scoring, it makes Jarvis' numbers that much more impressive. It will be fun to see where he ends up.

Why 2020 NHL draft lottery could throw back to 2005 Crosby Sweepstakes - Sportsnet.ca
The 2005 lottery brings back baaaaaaad memories.
I always think what could have been. If they won the Crosby lottery and came out of the lockout with the 05-06 team +Crosby
I'm hoping more game videos come out leading up to the draft. I want to see more, especially of the swedes. I have mixed thoughts.Holtz, Raymond @ 7/8 if we stand out. Stutzle or Rossi if we can jump into top 3. If we can somehow jump to 2, we’d have to take Byfield, he and Cozens add some much size up front. Still praying for some Buffalo luck and to somehow land 1OA and grab AL.
Realistically, please give me Raymond or Holtz over Lundell or Perfetti.

What Does It Mean To Draft Perfectly? An Evaluation Of Draft Strategy In The National Hockey League
I am really interested in reading this.
Didn't expect that ending...
Between 2000-2009Checking if I’m dumb or not. Did that say the Sabres were really good at drafting?
What is a good or bad draft?
With help from Schuckers, we put together a table of “draft successes” from the 1998 to 2009 NHL Drafts, successes defined by the above explanation of a player in the “high-end” or “very good” tier. With this data I could answer a few questions: What does a deep draft look like? What does a poor draft look like? How deep is an average draft?
Like above using just the 2004-09 drafts, adding the extra years back to 1998 didn’t change the answer on the average draft. That number was 24.3 successful players again, with the median being 24.5.
This table shows 12 of those drafts and the number of successes by position, in order of most successful to least successful draft.
What I learned from this is, despite the odd great year such as a 2003, and the odd poor year such as 1999, for the most part the other 10 drafts had a very tight distribution of results. Nine of the 12 drafts had between 21-to-26 successful players. It lends more evidence to my theory that most draft classes are indistinguishable from each other.[TBODY] [/TBODY]

1) Lafreniere
2) Byfield
3) Stutzle
4) Rossi
5) Drysdale
6) Raymond
7) Perfetti
8) Holtz
That's how I have it so far. If we can't get one of the top four forwards, give me Drysdale and enjoy an elite top pairing for the next decade plus.
My list is similar:
AL
Stut
Rossi
Raymond
Drysdale
Byfield
Holtz
Perfetti
