I know you all may think its stupid in one way or another. Bottom line is, people are getting vaccinated, cases and hospitalizations are down, and we all need to start to get back to normal life. Teams need to get fans back in the seats. If you are in a supermarket, you are not tested to get in and you are within 6 feet of people all of the time moving around. If there are 1700 fans in the building, the team will space them out to where they are not in soemone elses space when sitting. Thats all you are asking for. Anything else is no more dangerous that going out to a store. In

Can you confirm how it is the # 20 pick. Seems like Vancouver is still in, no?

Here is my question. What is best case and worst case drafting scenario this year? Best case - AZ loses playin, MTL or Chicago win lottery. Devils pick -#10 Vancouver wins play in, but loses first rd of playoffs. Devils pick around 16-18?? Worst Case - Arizona loses play in but wins lottery. Ari picks 1 vancouver loses play in we would lose 2 1st rd draft picks in a stacked draft but then get 2 unprotected picks next year. I for one am sick of kicking the can down the road. we need a little more magic on our side

It's about a 25% chance for each pick. I guess if memory serves me right that would be a 1/64 chance of this happening. Which brings it to 1.5%. Is it possible, yes, probably no. But you are right, I bet you one of those teams move up!

Anyone think that the league will have a PR problem if when the lottery hits on 6/26, all 3 picks come from teams in the play in round. Would look REALLY bad for them IMO. Then you may have fans rooting for their teams to lose in play in. 3 shots out of 8 (37.5 %) to get into the top 3!!

Yep - 100 % true. Now lets say they both lose in the play in round, I guess that could benefit us significantly, no?

Devils should not accept anything less than the # 10 overall pick for the Coyotes. By them "making the playoffs" they have the chance of moving up significantly, therefore affecting our pick number. I hope the devils argue this and it is addressed.

I also saw a suggested to roll back to 68 games and whereevr they were at 68 is the end of the season. In that scenario buffalo passes us for 6th worst and we are 7th

When you make a deal like Zibanejad and a 2nd for Brassard and a 7th, Fall into the likes of Fox and Panarin and then are able to trade guys like Hayes and Zuccarello for what they did, it is easy to rebuild quicker. When they decided to rebuild, they still had a decent team. When we decided to rebuild, we had scraps.

Do we really need another of these types.

Is it conceivable to say we could land Rossi and Stutzle with our top 2 picks? Or do you see them going for a D with a pick?

right now - I would say the Coyotes have a very good shot at missing the playoffs. Their next 10 is brutal.

Elias scored an OT goal once in our retros. He wore the Irish hat when he came out as the # 1 star!

My sloth like behavior in changing my name would not be necessary! Remember who called the firing of Hynes before the season!

I hate to say I was right - and although the record isn't completely right - its probably not too far off. Lets hope he actually gets fired today!! What a SHAM of a team.
