The All Encompassing Tank/Rebuild/Tankers GDT Thread III

[Daisy Jane]

I'm amazed that none of these guys have gone to their agents and asked them to go to Nonis and demand to gtfo of this mess

that would be SO nice.
considering most of them are causing the mess.

I think as Leaf fans, we aren't asking for anything unrealistic here.

Just be in that lottery. Is that possible? 5th overall IS possible!

Management should be helping this along. Think big big picture for once!

They're already in the lottery...

Horachek is the tank commander. He was put in place for this very reason. It's all coming together!

Don't want management to do anything drastic here. Sure, ship out Franson, Santo, Winnik, maybe Lupul or Bozak. Too big of a shakeup = hard work = Boyd Devereaux types ruining your pick (although thanks Boyd for Kadri).

That's right. Now they just need to increase their odds and put themselves in the highest position to draft if they don't win it because you can still get a top C.

 

[Warden of the North]

Every team below us has at least two games in hand. Ottawa has 3, Cbus has 4

Wow

For MacD?

don't you have to be at least 5th to jump to 1st?

 

[Trapper]

Trade the whole team for McDavid

Think the Sabres would accept?

Would you?

Not this year, new system.

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Just want them to get to #4 at least

And draft one of Strome or Marner (unless we win the lottery)

Starting ths year every team not in the playoffs can get the first pick via the lottery

Every team who misses the playoffs is in the McDavid lottery.

Well hot damn.

y'all join me please. i don't want to talk to myself.

No this year I believe any non playoff team who wins can jump to 1st.
The odds are the thing from last (20% chance) to 14th (1% chance).

 

[TMLeafer]

Well hot damn.

..but the worse you are, the better your odds.

 

[Eb]

William Nylander

Noah Hanifin

Antoine Bibeau

i will join you Daisy lol... all my posts get deleted in the normal GDT anyways since im in full tank mode lol

 

[Warden of the North]

LA probably just misses the playoffs then wins the lottery.

They've made some decent amount of changes to draft rules recently

Every non-playoff team has a shot at the #1 pick
And
Starting next draft, the first 3 picks are going to be determined by lotteries

 

[Maple Leaf]

Let's tank baby!

 

[TMLeafer]

C'mon EDM/BUF, please be an OT game.

 

[realgoodleafs]

They are not causing the mess. It's not Bozak's fault he isn't Getzlaf. Nonis assembled this team with the help of Burke and MLSE suit dummies.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

The way Horachek is going, we may be in Mcdavid territory by the end of Feb. This team can't beat NJ or Arizona on back to back nights. This aint ANA or PiTT.

 

[Leaf Lander]

For people who missed it:

this is something that I would be interested in. before (when we were like just bad) you could argue that Arizona wins/rigged the draft lottery, because it saves them. But now with the Leafs - who very, very easily, can slide to 4-5 .

how do you think the balls falls

1: Arizona: an argument you save the Franchise in Arizona, they need it. Bettman's bet.
2: Buffalo : who basically decided to show the league how to tank spectacularly.
3: Toronto: it gives the franchise a generational talent, spark a fanbase, and let's be honest - what better way to sell a rebuild (and create a reason for people 'not to give up') giving them the BEST player (and the financial sugar daddy is set up for the league and PA)


If Toronto wins: EVERYONE wins.
Toronto gets McDavid.
Buffalo Gets their generational talent (Eichel)
Edmonton Wins because they get their stud defensman (Hanifin)
Arizona gets the best centre talent if not for McEichel (Strome)

it's a total win-win-win-win.
what's your conspiracy theory?

Your so wise!

 

[Maple Leaf]

Leafs can finish bottom 3.
