I see this year is no different.

It's (frank)ing October. Is there some sort of tie in with the Jewish community that now makes x-mas 2 and a half months?

LA traded their pick and won the cup. It paid off. LA doesn't have a pick this draft.

I can go with this Burn, I'm not highly educated on drafting when a strike incurs, I just copy/pasted what I saw there.

They do, 3 balls and 2 balls. The article has mistakenly combined the 2 which is false.

pretty much the same as a lottery ticket then?

if you buy 1 ticket at 1 in 27 million and you buy a second ticket it's still 1 in 27 million not 2 in 27 million?

Seriously LOL? Well I guess you don't have to worry about it because you keep taking #1 overall....

No their chances of getting #1 have not increased. They have a chance that is equal to the leafs + another chance.


It's not like a normal lotto. In a regular lotto each ticket has the same chances. But in this lotto they are weighted differently.

Nah, this is one of the best drafts I've seen in a while. Similar to '08, IMO.

Barkov has been my guess for #1 pick for a while now.
