NAH, they'll probably end up dropping to 10th in the lottery as all the other teams pass them by!!!! They would increase their odds of #1 by 8% if they finish last. If they stay in 29th they have a better chance of picking 5th or 6th than 1st. http://www.tankathon.com/nhl/pick_odds
chris.brock Posted February 13, 2018 Report Posted February 13, 2018 Is that Dave Randorf doing the play by play? for christs sakes bring back Joe Bowen to TV, this is like watching a US channel

chris.brock Posted February 13, 2018 Report Posted February 13, 2018 Leafs just beat the best team in the league and have won 8 of 9, good times! Vagilevskiy did look a little sketchy but our boys played hard.
mikeh Posted February 13, 2018 Report Posted February 13, 2018 Marner could have had 4 goals this game with the chances he created, wish Marner would shoot high on the goalie all the time

The year they suck like no other, their 1st round pick goes to Colorado! So to answer your question Brian, NOPE won't help them a bit. Colorado, yes! LOL Should be Otta-move!
Acountdeleted Posted February 13, 2018 Report Posted February 13, 2018 They are a little more protected then that. But not much. Its their first rounder this year OR next year and its at Ottawa's discretion. Plus they can make this decision right up to the trade deadline. Its not an easy decision but it does give them some wiggle room.

Matthews gets 3 assists and they beat the best team in the league!! There's so much scoring potential on this team now that Matthews can't outscore the sum of all the parts. Look at Crosby's numbers in his first years...same goals as Matthew but mad number of assists.

Either way, Otta-move has tons of time to screw it up and wins some games. "The real talking point with the draft picks is the Sens gave up their first round pick in 2018. While this may seem bad, we have to consider that it is likely to be a late first round pick as the Sens are projected to do quite well this season(this part made me LAUGH). However, even on the off chance that the Sens perform poorly, the pick is top 10 protected. This means that if the Sens were to pick in the top 10 the pick would slide to 2019. As a result, there is zero chance the Sens give up a top prospect for Duchene."

I wonder who that was? We will see how that pans out. I can see Ottawa using a late season surge to end up getting the tenth pick overall and then giving up the first overall pick in 2019.
DRIFTER_016 Posted February 14, 2018 Author Report Posted February 14, 2018 (edited) Phaneuf was just traded to LA. Sens keep 25% salary. Edited February 14, 2018 by DRIFTER_016
Acountdeleted Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 Why the heck would LA want him? At least Ottawa finally came to their sense with Phaneuf.

I think the trade was basically 2 teams disappointed at where they are in the standings, trying to shake things up.

Re: Mark Norman@MNorman87 Good return on the Dion Phaneuf deal for Ottawa. Gaborik is a real playoff performer. Could get them over the hump this season.
BillM Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 That didn't last long for the US, lol!
