Yeah, but McDavid didn't have the Canucks as a possibility, too...

To be fair, I think he knows how peed off he looked at the last lottery and is probably telling Matthews to make the best of it, even if its an outcome that he's dreading like the Oilers.

I'm a big believer in intuition. I once envisioned a Max Lapierre playoff goal nearly exactly the way hit happened minutes before it actually took place.
I have a feeling again. I see us with the third overall pick. The only problem is I also see the Oilers in front of us.

Spoke to a GM today who sees Ovechkin potential in Laine. Has a high end shot and has potential to be 40+ goal scorer in NHL.

I don't think it was the fact that he wasn't smiling ... I think it was the fact that he looked like he was about to throw up.

Will Matthews even be there this year? I assume he's in Russia getting ready for the World Championships.

Ovechkin is the greatest goalscorer in modern NHL history. God damn, people get carried away with comparisons...

I would have to agree with you. If he has Ovechkin potential that is a 50+ goal scorer.
Still a 40 goal scorer would be a top 5 goal scorer in the league. I'd take that and run.

We're winning 2nd and drafting Laine. All the other possible outcomes can go **** themselves, with all due respect.

Lots of ties to Calgary too playing for the hitmen and his wife is from here. Would be a great fit if he can come back strong after his knee injury

Nobody should want to attend the ceremony of their future indentured slavery in person. Especially not after seeing McDavid have to do it last year.
