"insert team here" for first overall is (frank)ing stupid, but whatever

3 and 5, i'm okay with that

so Ottawa likely ends up with byfield/stutzle and probably Raymond....as I think Detroit will take Drysdale.

would have been nice to have lafreniere, but i'm happy with the result. got a top 3 pick, which means we get the #1 center we need

Overall 3rs and 5th is pretty great.

A placeholder team winning this could be complete BS, or no big news (Montreal, NY).
Prepare the conspiracy theories.

Anyone else think Daly did a poor job at hiding his pleasure at how things turned out? Exactly what the NHL wanted to happen.

Detroit going with another RD wouldn't make as much sense with Seider and Hronek in the picture already. Their C depth isn't exactly outstanding; Rossi or Perfetti might look REAL good there, too.

Brian Burke's text message to Ron MacLean:
"This is a disgrace."

the NHL is the clown of all sports league on earth, Cap will go down in 2021-2022 because many people will stop watching this clown league.

It is b.s. mystery team tankathon is on. Only in the nhl is this possible.
Sens will get good players.

Other than for Ottawa getting 1st overall, nobody really knows who is the better pick between Stutzle and Byfield.

Same thing at 4 and 5.

I was mad that Dorion took Tkachuk at 4. Imagine how Montreal feels about how they used the 3 pick in that draft.

Byfield and Rossi would be my A+ result based on the 3 and 5.

I was hoping that Doug Wilson getting selected into the HHOF after 20+ years was an omen that we would get the #1 overall with the San Jose pick. Not to be.
While a little disappointing, getting #3 and #5 is still a very solid outcome. Certainly helps make up for losing the #4 overall pick to Colorado last year.
The scouting staff have done a great job the last 3 years so I'm hopeful that we will get the elite talent to make us very competitive in 3+ years.

It’s a lock considering Carey already doesn’t want to play.

Another Hoax, tis the season

Maybe this was planned to prevent any placeholder teams calling for a do over if covid cancels everything.

fair, but I'm not sure either of those D are sure fire top paring guys....Drysdale is pretty close to can't miss.

I do agree about the centers though.....either way, I doubt they'd take Raymond and I hope that's who Ottawa grabs at 5

yup, from what i can see on twitter, and many message boards this is a total and complete PR disaster for the NHL, some calling on bettman to resign, some to re-do the draft without the placeholder team, this will end up hurting the NHL big time.

I suppose as long as its not n.y.i to win #1 . All is well in sens land. That would hurt.

But its likely going to be a team that is already stacked.

This nhl draft was a mockery . Lets see what happens when the season finally gets cancelled

Cosentino says Detroit will take Perfetti at #4. Sens, he believes, will likely end up with Byfield and Drysdale.

Is that who it was? I heard someone say it was #12 but I did not check to see what team that it actually was. This is beginning to look more stupid by the minute.
