Sod16 Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 They had 2-1 odds, 5 times better than the next highest odds. In other words, we had a 33% chance of getting the 31st pick, which is historically a low percentage proposition for getting a significant NHL player. We've all wasted time worrying about this pick.

lefty9 Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Except you don't know that. None of us do. He could very well have a Datsyuk-like "decline" to his career where even into his mid-to-late thirties, he's one of the game's best wingers.you right ,no one does know the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindG1000 Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Sure, but that was a stretch goal. It was always a small chance of them winning cup. However, their imminent demise will give us a pretty good 2nd rounder. The worst case scenario for that pick was 61 overall (Bolts lose in the SCF). This is the (given the seasons' results) second best case scenario for the pick - 58 overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatfrancesa Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Completely disagree. I'd take Panarin/Karlsson over Hall/Pietrangelo all day long and twice on Sunday. You still on board with this? Pieterangelo seems to me to be the better player after this postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
