I mean of the top 3 teams that have picks right now, we deserved it the most. I still don't like that though because the Flyers and Stars shouldn't move up more than 2 spots. That was a screw job for Colorado and Vancouver and I think it's kind of shitty. I understand the league doesn't want to reward teams for tanking, but there should be a rule in place so teams don't move back more than 2 spots and don't move up more than 2 spots.

It does suck as a Canucks fan. 2 seasons in a row they're in the "running" for 1st, but move down to 5th. They didn't exactly tank either, besides maybe trading Hansen and Burrows, but they sucked even before that. I mean, it probably sucks even more to be Colorado. They didn't even tank, they just fucking sucked and pick 4th instead of 1st.

DollarAndADream 3,356 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I honestly didn't know that 3 separate teams could move up to 1, 2, and 3 until this just happened. Especially from that far down the board? New Jersey really needs the help and deserves a high pick, but fuck. Philly and Dallas? Dallas was a little further out of the playoffs, but Philly wasn't that far out.

MD9 139 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Colorado got seriously screwed there. Why is a team that sucked so much worse than everyone else able to drop not just out of number 1, but out of the top 3 entirely? So salty.

I didn't like how when they did it they told us that "this team is guaranteed a spot in the top three". Why? Like why are they guaranteed. How many lotteries are actually within the lottery.

BluObieZ 1,125 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Pretty fucked up how the teams with the top percents drop out of the top three.

Devise 4,475 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Yeah the rules on that front are pretty dumb. Dallas going that high when so many pieces of that President Trophy winning team are still there and they basically just had an off year is beyond laughable.

BluObieZ 1,125 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Colorado got severely fucked up the ass on that one. They were so God damn bad this season. I've been a fan since the Quebec days and this last season was hard to stomach and to go from 1st to 4th is a gut punch. Maybe this will make em pick that top D. Since with 1st they would have taken Patrick. Their main issue is that horrid D. My fuck is it ever horrid. It will suck even more if the prospect Butcher who just won the hobey baker does not sign and becomes a FA in August. He would help the D tons.

Also because of Las Vegas' blow up yesterday, I'm glad the AVS dropped to 4th. Fuck the Aces!
