I can't see them getting worse to be honest. If anything I think they will get stronger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, I'd prefer to have 3 picks this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chimaira_Devil_#9 Posted February 28, 2020 Author Share Posted February 28, 2020 The Canucks lost last night in spectacular fashion to the Senators, the three teams directly behind them chasing the playoffs all picked up points last night as well. They still have a game in hand but it's incredibly close. Canucks Current pick : 1st round 2020, 17th . Buffalo lost yesterday, reducing their playoff chances another 0.25%. Buffalo pick: still a 5th round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagknife Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 (edited) Vancouver also has 3 games in hand on the Jets and the Yotes, 2 on Calgary and the aforementioned 1 on Edmonton. So at least they have a tiny bit of struggle room. Arizona having 66 games played and are in shambles compared to how they looked a few months ago is quite remarkable. I feel like I remember them having 52 points in November and leading the Pacific Edited February 28, 2020 by jagknife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerzey Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) Minnesota passed Arizona in the standings and as of now now the pick is top 10. They also have two games at hand on AZ. https://www.nhl.com/standings/2019/wildcard Edited February 29, 2020 by Jerzey 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimaira_Devil_#9 Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) Arizona's 1st rounder: 11th overall Managed to pick up a 5-2 win over bottom dwellers Buffalo. Still outside the playoffs. Tampa Bay's 1st: 17th + Vancouver are clinging on at the moment. They got lucky in the fact that the Flames, Jets , Preds and Arizona all lost. They still have games on all the teams around them in the Pacific. Markstrom's injury is now worse than feared , he is due to miss a month. Carolina's 4th: no pick No Sami, No pick. The good news on this is that Kuokkanen has been good for Bing, Goal and an assist last night and 5 shots. Buffalo's 5th: Buffalo down to 1% chance of making the playoffs.

NJDevils1214 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 A lot can happen durning an off-season, I think we know that all too well, however I don't see Vancouver being much worse next year barring some crazy turn of events. I'm still torn on whether I'd rather have the pick this year in an advertised deep draft or take our chances on next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMONPETEYD Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagknife Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Surprise surprise Cinco Domingo fvcks us even when not playing for us. Nucks had a 3-1 lead into the 3rd where he choked as usual and gave up 3 goals on 7 shots in 6 minutes to lose They are now WC 1 with a 2 point lead and 2 games in hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chimaira_Devil_#9 Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 Arizona's 1st rounder: 11th overall No change , Yotes next game is Wednesday Vs the Canucks. The pick fromerly known as Prince (aka the pick sent by the Vancouver Canucks to the Tampa Bay Lightning as well as a 2019 third round pick and goaltender Marek Mazanec in exchange for J.T Miller, which was then subsequently traded to the New Jersey Devils with Nolan Foote in exchange for Blake Coleman) : 17th + Vancouver suck right now. Another loss this time after being 3-1 up on Columbus. The next game is huge. The Canucks actually do have to play the Coyote's 3 more times this season, so all of those games are big. They still hold a wildcard spot right now, and have two games in hand over the teams outside the WC and on the Flames. Carolina's 4th: no pick No change. Buffalo's 5th: No change. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilsfan118 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 http://www.sportsclubstats.com/NHL/Western/Pacific/Vancouver.html I mean Vancouver would more or less have to have a complete meltdown this year to not make the playoffs. Odds are still heavily in their favor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
