Very scary with the lotto this year. Say we lose cbj wins then cbj in the 4th last position wins a lottery pick and van does not makes the tank not worth it. I say let's just cheer for a win lol end the year right. 

Exactly - careful what you wish for!

 

This is now the worst season since the late 90's.

 

3-2 Canucks!

 

Go Canucks GO!

It's not just about a chance for the top three pick, it's about how far we can drop down. Since we can drop up to 3 spots, losing (and CBJ winning) means we pick top 6 vs possibly top 7. Could make the difference in our getting Chychrun.

Matthews 

Laine

Other Finn with weird name

Tkatchuck

Dubois

Nylander

Chychrun 

 

So chychrun is rated 7th and i'd probably rather sergachev than him anyways. Either is fine with me. If nylander or Dubois dropped to 7 it would be a steal for us. 

 

Really not worried

If we finish 3rd..thats the best we can hope for...and CBJ finishes 4th and wins a lottery pick and we dont...we can pick no worse than 4th..it puts us out of the Matthews or Finns area..then it drops off somewhat ...so basically by tanking against the Oilers its for a very small percentage at the lottery.

Wrong. We can always pick 3 worst than our position.  We can fall to 6th from third.

How does that work..I think some of us need a lesson on the draft...is it because the 3 top teams could come from behind us in the lottery?

Unfortunately... I fear this is just the beginning.

Reality check....without the Sedins, we finish last and eclipse the rest of the losers.

We need to dump the Twins and lose this last game and next season too.  Let's get to the bottom, and collect some ELITE talent.

 

Coilers (McDavid mostly) 6 = Canucks (Bo) 3.  Go Tank Go!!!!
