Vegas is the West #1 and Colorado is #2.
I get that the circumstances are extraordinary, but that was something difficult to see coming a few months ago.

Flyers up 2-1 against Lightning to determine the #1 and #2 seeds. If the lead holds, Philly will be first and Tampa second.

I'll be rooting for the Dallas Stars this postseason. Do it for Pavelski.

No surprise there.

Leafs are done. No surprise there. They deserved the loss after that second goal.....where was the freaking defense there? That was like something I could pull off in an NHL game on Easy Mode.

Who would have guessed that a $33 million dollar first line wasn't enough to compensate when the defense and goaltending is total asscheeks?
Oh, right. Everyone who has watched Toronto underachieve over the last several years

Rangers get Lafreniere. Rich get richer in terms of young talent. Shesty, Kakko, and now Lafreniere.

And the Ducks just keep getting f***ed.
We're not going to be good for a long while.

A few teams came out ahead tonight. NYR obvi. But Minnesota comes out with the 9th pick, which they were one of the teams that most needed talent out of the phase 2 teams. Outside of Kaprizov, Boldy was a good pick last year but with a lower ceiling IMO than guys chosen after him (Caufield, Harley, Krebs.)
The Canes make out like bandits. The Leafs did poorly enough to end up out of the playoffs, but not so lucky as to end up with a top 10 pick. This draft is about 3 deep at the top, and then the next tier ends at about 9/10 olbut that 3rd tier is every bit as good as the guys going in the latter half of the top 10 last year. Lundell, Zary, Jarvis are all great talents. There's will be a couple real good D depending on how the D rankings shake out past Drysdale/Sanderson, I like Guhle personally. And Askarov will still be there if they think the future at G is a big need. To get that caliber of talent to buyout Patrick Marleau, that's huge.
And the Pens get to add a top 15 pick. Not really a great night for them odds-wise, but the foresight that SOME teams didn't have could have cost them a top 15 pick for Zucker. Only problem now is next year is unconditional iirc, which means if they fall off a cliff then Minnesota wins huge. But I think they still make the playoffs next year.

Rangers get Lafreniere. Rich get richer in terms of young talent. Shesty, Kakko, and now Lafreniere. They have potential to be outright scary offensively in a couple years if they can get a #2 center. Like 3-deep, wear teams completely out, scary. If Shesty is indeed the real deal in net, and the kids on defense pan out, they are going to be very good for a very long time.

I see that Karlsson trade + mega extension is working out just swimmingly for the Sharks. Ouch. At least it was 3 instead of 1.

Lafreniere is supposed to be a great winger immediately, but Stutzle (projected 3rd) is a really dynamic center with huge upside. He's a Barzal type prospect, maybe higher upside. Great speed, great passing. It's a gigantic win after giving up Byram to rent Duchene who is a getting crushed in Nashville now, in order to keep the Tkachuk pick. I think they made the right choice in getting Brady and Byfield/Stutzle and giving up the Byram pick.
