there needs to be a rule you can only get the first pick and still suck balls so many times before you lose your right to first pick for awhile

There isnt a question about who they pick.

We western conference fans get to see mcdavid grow so thats awesome. Bad news is its on the oilers. So let the offseason oiler trade rumors start because there is no way they go into next year with the current goalkeeping and blueline they have. Im sure hawk fans will suggest trading crawford there a thousand times.

Oilers will have an interesting off season though. One of those young forwards is gone. Probably Nuge seeing they love Hall and just resigned the russian flop.

They should trade McDavid to the Kings.

I heard the doughty rumor already. Mcdavid isnt a guy you trade anywhere. If they deal with the kings for doughty it will be Hall or a package including Nuge.

Last guy with this much hype as the first overall was crosby.

Neither was Gretzky.

Honestly though, I hadn't heard anything about Doughty, or any actual rumors for that matter. It was just supposed to be a Gretzky joke.

Do they draft McDavid or Eichel?

McDavid.

I really wish Buffalo had won. They really need McDavid more than Edmonton. Oilers have a lot of young talent on offense. Buffalo has none.

Eeeeeeerrrrrrrrrr sammy reinhart says hello!! Eichell is no shabby second pick. Buffalo will do just fine with reinhart and eichell as guys to build around...just fine indeed.

Jake mcabe is a solid defense prospect also. Tim schaller a good forward prospect. Buffalo has pieces.

I had an underlying fear that he was going to the Kings or Bruins. Glad that didn't happen

The chances of that would've been pretty remote. iirc, I think they pick 13th and 14th, respectively.

Wow, 4th #1 pick for the Oilers since 2010...and for this one they have like a 13% chance..........................

Wonder if this one finally turns them around....

sorta off topic but what do you think of this idea for the draft lottery. Wherever you finish in the standing is how many balls/scraps of paper in the pot for the lottery so last place gets 30, first place (I say reg season ranking but sc winner works too) gets 1. Then they draw. whoever gets it, has their balls taken out and rinse and repeat.

Here's my logic, EVERY team gets a shot at first pick but the better you do the smaller your chance.

I talked to my uncle in Buffalo tonight, he is absolutely FUMING about the draft and ranted for about 15 minutes. They wanted McDavid BAD.
Especially mad about Bettman and how it's all done behind closed doors. Even bitching about how in the 70's the Sabres almost got screwed out of there first round when they announced number 1 instead of 11 which was the Sabres number. He then rattled off the entire roster of the Buffalo Bison, the AHL farm team of the Rangers back in the day.
