I like cheering for teams without a franchise player: NYR, Detroit, Montreal would be my top 3.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Detroit, NY Rangers, and Calgary are the only teams that haven't drafted top 3 in the past 25 years.

I guess maybe Boston is close, since Thornton was drafted awhile ago. They only drafted Seguin because of a good trade. Minnesota doesn't seem to draft high either.

Three teams from the east that are above the Oilers in the standings? I'm not worried about the Oilers picking high, just like to see them lose as often as possible in every way possible.

I think Colorado will get it.

Jersey needs it.

Hoping Arizona doesn't get it. They are not far off being really good.

Edmonton. It would be hilarious to watch them draft Hughes and put another center on the wing and watch him command $16M when his ELC is up. They’ll still never win anything but lotteries.

As long as it’s not Vancouver I’ll be happy. I really don’t care if Edmonton wins. They couldn’t build around McDavid. They’re hopeless.

This will be their 5th top 10 pick in the past 6 years.
At some point enough is enough.

The Rags or Wings. Both Eastern Conference teams that rarely draft high. I don't want to see a Western Team win and Buffalo, Florida, Philly, and NJ have had enough top picks recently.

3 teams from the Eastern Conference that finish behind the Oilers so the Oil fall 3 full spots in the draft. If there aren't 3 teams from the east behind the Oil then Florida, and two teams behind the Oil.
