Gravesy Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Right! Didn't take too many spins at Tankathon to realize that at the 5th or 6th slot, NYR are much more likely to slide down 1-2 (possibly, but not likely 3) picks than to make the top 3. Slot number 4 would be the worst, where you would have only a 2.1% chance of actually drafting 4th. The odds levelize for drafting at your standings slot (as in NYR was in the 9th slot last year and picked 9th) at about number 8. The table in this article is great and was done for 2017, when there were still 14 teams that missed the playoffs, but VGK was in the mix. http://sinbin.vegas/understanding-the-nhl-draft-lottery/ Would love to see an updated version, but haven't been able to find it. http://www.tankathon.com/nhl/pick_odds This?

Kevin Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Anaheim wins in OT. The Rangers are now alone in 5th worst! 6 points ahead of the Devils which seems unattainable but hopefully they can sustain their spot over the last 9 games.

Kevin Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Devils win in shootout! Only 4 points behind(ahead) of NYR for 4th from last. But they have only 6 games left and we have 9. We need to lose and lose every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 But they have only 6 games left and we have 9. We need to lose and lose every game. And that doesn't negate what I posted, so... Sens tied at 2 after 2 with Edmonton. As long as the game goes to OT I am happy. We're not likely to ever catch Ottawa so an Edmonton win puts them another two points ahead of us so that's probably our best bet since they're only 4 points ahead of us right now.

Kevin Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I'm sure it's an irrational thought but the fact that Buffalo has sucked so hard to end this season really pisses me off. I can just see them getting lucky and winning the lottery and adding Hughes to the mix with Eichel and Dahlin. Fuck them. Get better already!!! Tied with us for points...fuck that.

Gravesy Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Both NJ and Detroit win. How annoying is that Leafs win now. Have to hope Buffalo can have a word with themselves and win against Ottawa tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosenvold Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Wow, it's getting much closer than I thought it would. Currently: Buffalo - 71 points - 7 games left (Ottawa, Detroit, Islanders, Columbus, Nashville, Ottawa, Detroit) Rangers - 71 points - 7 games left (Boston, St. Louis, Philly, New Jersey, Ottawa, Columbus, Pittsburgh) New Jersey - 67 points - 5 games left (Detroit, St. Louis, Rangers, Carolina, Florida) Detroit - 66 points - 6 games left (Buffalo, New Jersey, Boston, Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Buffalo) It's not at all impossible that New Jersey and Detroit take 4-6 points more, but the Rangers need to keep losing.

Gravesy Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 It's a bit of a ball ache that New Jersey, Detroit and Buffalo are all playing each other though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsley Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Sadly, I think all 3 of those teams finish worse than the Rangers. Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long live the King Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 And with the least ROW, the Rangers have the tie-breaker... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I don't know where to put this but, I'm noticing a big trend in the prospect blogger crowd to vastly over rate Euro leagues. I see stuff like this all the time. In the Rangers case, I find it really weird that it's almost all British people as far as I can tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThirtyONE Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Anyone not worried about Buffalo isn’t paying attention. They SUCK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsley Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Time to kick Buffalo and Edmonton out of the league. The prolonged sucking despite years of good picks is a joke.

Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Why do the NHL.com standings have Rangers ahead of Buffalo with the same amount of points, but with fewer ROW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gravesy Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Anyone not worried about Buffalo isn’t paying attention. They SUCK. Yeah. The way they're looking you'd think the Rangers can only afford to win 1 more game if they are to hold on to the 5th position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaveByRichter35 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Why do the NHL.com standings have Rangers ahead of Buffalo with the same amount of points, but with fewer ROW? Because we have the same amount of points with one less game played. If we had the same amount of games played they would be ahead of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
