I've seen the chart before but can't find it right now. I believe we can't pick at 4 but odds for 1st 2nd and 3rd are: 3%, 3.5% and 4% respectively. Now I could be slightly off but that's close to accurate at worst.

 

The chart above says 6% for the 1st pick?

 

We have a 19.1% chance of moving up to top 3.

 

6% for #1

 

Ah, you posted at the same time. Got it - that's pretty good!

Yeah I screwed it up a bit. Here's the link that has the odds for every team and every pick. Can't seem to get the picture to attach it here so I have to just leave the link.

Thanks! Like QCity, I'm feeling lucky to get in that top 3! We had a 25% chance and lost, then a 20% chance and lost. I say the law of averages is going to give us one!

The Sabres will pick 8th in the 2016 NHL draft.


Toronto wins the Lottery and will pick 1st in the NHL. Get ready for Eichel vs. Matthews!

Sure.....like the last 8 out 21 times the team with the best odds won.

 

can't stand the smugness of shanahan.....Matthews seemed none to pleased that he is going to Toronto....can't say I blame him.

Yeah, the "mixed emotions" comments was funny.

You mean like McDavid? He was almost in tears last year and seemed to do pretty well?

 

These kids hope to go to their home team. they are always a little shocked. understandable.

He's from Arizona and let it be known that he grew up watching shane Doan and Daniel briere. He's a big Coyote's fan. I would expect mixed emotions.

I've never paid attention to the NHL draft before recently...are there no big trades up into the top 3 like in the NFL? Any chance the Sabres could package some of their draft booty to move up?

Almost none. There is no way any team trades out of the top three.

Juolevi would make a great pairing with Ristolainen eventually. Chychrun wouldn't be bad either.
