interesting to go 0/5 for Flames appearances and then suddenly 3/3.

At 3/8 I'm pushing 40% compared to the 26% dictated by odds. I went from using up the bad luck to maybe burning up the good!

1st overall and pushing out the Oilers AND Leafs? Even with the Canucks in there, thats about as close to perfect one can dream for, so I'm rounding up to 10 points.

Best case scenario with Flames winning and the Oilers being knocked down. Don't even care if the Nucks get 2nd.

Voted 10 but am wishing the poll went up to 11.

Perfect 10 if the Canucks weren't in 2nd. This is a 9 for me.

The nucks getting 2nd doesn't matter, they wouldn't know what to do with a good hound player. It really doesn't matter who gets what if the flames get 1st overall, Matthews on the flames would be epic!

I gave it a 10 because of the #1 pick going to Calgary. I have no problem moving Bennett to the wing because a guy like Matthews is coming in. That's called 'a good problem to have'.

9/10. 10/10 after Kyle Palmieri, Adam Larsson and the 3rd for Wideman and the 1st happens.

9 out of 10, I like it. Vancouver getting a top 3 pick drops it 1 point.

If this happened on draft day, this sums up my reaction perfectly.

I give it an 8 -- happy to see the Flames win and Oilers not in it, but higher than an 8 has to have the Sabres winning as well!

Still, would be sweet to see the Flames win!

This was supposed to inoculate us to disappointment. You're doing the opposite!

I'll give this a 9. Great for us, but having to face Laine 5 times a season wouldn't be ideal. Also, less chance of the Canucks cocking his development up. I'd almost rather he went to Edmonton because we know he'd be wasted there and it would be hilarious to see them take another forward.

Pretty good score, but a perfect 10 for me is us in the top 3 with the Oilers and Canucks pushed out of the top 3.
