So we’re all rioting like it’s 2011 if we get 3rd, right?

What if this team actually gets good things for once? Wouldn’t that be a pleasant surprise?

Going in fully expecting to pick 3rd. This way I won’t be disappointed if anything else happens.

I don’t understand the third pick references in this comment section? Can someone explain

This D core with Verhoeff, Buium, Willander and D-Petey is going to be insane.

If you draft 3rd, you have to consider trading Hronek for a haul this summer

Sucks Edmonton ruined the lottery. Objectively Canucks deserve a top 2 pick yet are most likely picking 3rd overall. Canucks luck has us always picking 1 slot out of a higher tier.

I really want to get McKenna. I know I’m setting myself up for another disappointment.

I have been disappointed too many times that I am just going in expecting 3rd OA so I won’t be disappointed. At thsi point, lottery draft position drop doesn’t hurt me emotionally anymore. I see it as we hold the 3rd OA pick with a 45% chance to move up 1 or 2 spots.

Canucks #1 pick overall… I said it.

There are so many insufferable teams that are in the lottery this year, it’s gonna be so annoying if any of them jump and pass us. I’m prepared for disappointment.

With Canucks in last place, they will draft first, second or third.

This was my first roll of the simulator. The 2nd was the same but Florida on top. I don’t like either of those options lol

The plan: get the other GMs caught up in a Cinco de Mayo party they can’t get out of, so the pick passes on to Canucks by default
At least we’re getting third
3rd on the 5th sounds like a plan to me.

WE ARE GETTING FIRST! ☝🏻
Mckenna or Stenberg this year and DuPont next year please! 🙏
Third overall here we come
I am “okay” with Verhoeff as he is going to be an absolute stud. What we can not afford is to start winning games and fall outside the top 3.
We will ALL be there
3rd overall pick this year, 1st overall next year.
Best d core in the NHL in 5 years? Yep
if we don’t win the lottery, McKenna better start telling teams he will only report to the Canucks… 😭🙏🏼
