I would say less than 5% of posters click blind links buds. Best to just copy and paste the text you want people to see
have u got any idea how much scrolling it would be if i'd done that?
there are all 7 rounds in every link
i''d say 95% of posters would be pissed to see 4 pages and have to scroll thru it
another bad day, rosebud?
:lol:

Ok Mick take it easy man. I'm not picking on ya. Just trying to save u some struggling but I'll butt out
I am not part of the 5% and no I do not need to scroll through several pages, how about we just provide relevant information or summarize in your own words.

.All-time, the Canucks had 13 top-five draft picks, but have never received the first overall pick. Two were Hank & Danny,
.Not really the best track record

The stars sure are lining up for that arent they. I can see this being our year...with his bro already in the fold. It makes for a good tim hortons moment and that seems to be what the NHL is about

Fucking Tank the rest of the season, we won’t get in the top 4, unreachable, but I’d be very happy with the 5th best odds. Puts us in the Turcotte, Podkozlin, Byram and Cozens territory

The famous DRAFT LOTTO will be held earlier this year at April 9th!

‘It’s huge’: Big-league scouts applaud NHL decision to set earlier draft lottery date

The NHL announced that the draft lottery will take place on April 9, giving scouts a better grasp on their draft position and which prospects to watch as major competitions draw to a close.

https://thehockeynews.com/news/article/ ... ttery-date
“It helps tremendously,” one scout said. “The sooner you know where you’re picking, the sooner you can make your plan and decide which players you need to see and who you don’t need to see. If you know where you’re picking, especially if it’s high, you can focus on the guys you need to, which gives you a chance to concentrate more on your second-round pick.”

“It’s huge,” another scout said. “This way, the teams that are picking at the top know where they’re going to go. If you know you’re picking from No. 1 to 6 this year, you’re going to want to focus on the Under-18s, but after that, you might put your resources into watching guys in junior hockey.”

Actually, the results of the past two lotteries have lent an enormous amount of credence to the notion that holding the lottery earlier is better. Just last year, the Carolina Hurricanes went into the lottery seeded 11th, but won the second overall pick and shifted up nine spots. So most of their scouts went to the Under-18 World Championship in Russia thinking they’d likely be choosing somewhere in the 10-14 range. Had they known going into that tournament they’d be choosing second overall instead, they might not have placed such a heavy emphasis on the Uncder-18s and instead looked more closely at Andrei Svechnikov, the player they ended up selecting, in the Ontario League playoffs. The year previous, the Philadelphia Flyers were seeded 12th after the season, but vaulted up to second and immediately went into the Nico Hischier-Nolan Patrick territory. (Of course, with the benefit of hindsight, rookie-of-the-year frontrunner Elias Pettersson might have been the better pick.)
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.
