[The Black Panther]

I think Patrick is in shock.

[Axeman33]

Dobber prospects just got some screen time on Sportsnet.

Awesome!

[dooley89]

Just saw the dobber prospects quote in the runner on sportsnet, nice!

[VintageVibe]

Tabernac... Pettersson first to rise up.

[Axeman33]

Welp, my top 10 has gone to shit after a good start. LOL! F'n Canucks sent it spiralling.

[VintageVibe]

Safe to say we all sucked... who sucked the least, Peng??

[StuntMan12]

i declare myself the unofficial winner. there you have it boys lol. nah mine went to crap after the 3rd pick

[Jouko-Pouko]

I think we all forgot to total up our own scores. I got 86 points. Did anyone get more?

Jouko-Pouko's entry:
1 NJD - Nico Hischier (correct spot = 1, 10 points)
2 PHI - Nolan Patrick (correct spot = 2, 10 points)
3 DAL - Miro Heiskanen (correct spot = 3, 10 points)
4 COL - Cale Makar (correct spot = 4, 10 points)
5 VAN - Cody Glass (correct spot = 6, 9 points)
6 VEG - Gabriel Vilardi (correct spot = 11, 5 points)
7 NYR - Owen Tippett (correct spot = 10, 7 points)
8 BUF - Casey Mittelstadt (correct spot = 8, 10 points)
9 DET - Elias Pettersson (correct spot = 5, 6 points)
10 FLA- Michael Rasmussen (correct spot = 9, 9 points)

Lias Andersson was the only one missing from my top-10 but I guess he was missing from most top-10 lists...

[Pengwin7]

^Yeah... I'd guess you were the winner.
That was a really, really good prediction list!!!
We've had similar contests (for full 30) each of past two years and I think that's the closest top 10 I've seen.
(Though - we had like 25 entrants prior year and somebody DID get the top 6 exact in the 2016 or 2015 entry draft - can't remember who...)

Rules:
1. Predict the order of the first ten picks in the NHL draft. You must pick a full ten.
2. You start with 100pts. You lose a point for every draft spot off. If you peg a guy for 6th and he goes 9th, you take 3pts off.
3. Contestants shall total up their own scores

Contest Entry closes at 7:00pm Eastern.



P7 Entry:
1. Patrick-9
2. Hischier-9
3. Vilardi-2
4. Heiskanen-9
5. Glass-9
6. Makar-8
7. Mittelstadt-9
8. Necas-6
9. Rasmussen-9
10. Pettersson-5

My killer was placing Vilardi so high.
Quite the red flag that teams at #3-#10 passed on him.
Perhaps he is judged too slow for modern NHL.
I think he'll be a good player.

I did exclude Tippett, who fell to #10... but missed including Lias at #7.
75 score should put me in bottom third, I think.

[Rodgort]

Interesting... Watch me be dead last haha

1. Patrick - 99
2. Hischier - 98
3. Vilardi - 90
4. Heiskanen - 89
5. Pettersson - 89
6. Glass - 89
7. Mittelstadt - 88
8. Makar - 84
9. Tippett - 83
10. Necas - 81

Hm. 81 not bad. I was pretty off on everyone though haha
