The Athletic did a piece on - "IF" all 24 Playoff Teams got to Draft 1 - Player off of the [7] Non - Play-off Teams
~ Based on points & seeding in reverse - [worst picks first]
~ Rossi had us taking R. Brown, LAK and I laughed so hard that I choked on coffee, came out of nose, then I sharted a lil bit, and then sneezed - Yes I was quit a mess, lol
**This is ONLY for this playoff 24- Bracket - Based on Team NEED NOW, for this Playoff Run ONLY [not for future]
~ NO TRADES ~
1- MTL - C- J. Eichel, BUF ------------- Obviously
2- CHI - G- J. Gibson, ANA ------------ Karlsson would be the pick here but CHI needs a #1 G
3- ARZ - C- A. Kopitar, LAK ---------- The need is a #1 Center here
4- MIN - C- L. Couture, SJS ----------- Again the need is a #1 Center
5- WPG - LD - E. Karlsson, SJS ------ Falls into WPG's lap
6- NYR - LD - T. Chabolt, OTT ------- This NYR D could be scary
7- CGY - LW - B. Tkachuk, OTT ----- Brothers Grimm
8- FLA - C - D. Larkin, DET ----------- This top 6 would be insane w/ Larkin as #2 C
9- NSH - RD - D. Doughty, LAK ----- They need someone that has won before + D would be crazy
10- VAN - RD - B. Burns, SJS ---------- Quinn - Burns Top pairing
11- TOR - RD - PK Subban, NJD ----- This would be crazy to see & a very Leafs thing to do
12- CBJ - C - N. Hischier, NJD -------- Steal at #12 here - good #2 C
13- EDM - LW - E. Kane, SJS ---------- 9-97-29 - 1st Line - Not bad, lol
14- NYI - L/W - J. Skinner, BUF ------ Adds speed w/ already fast #13
15- DAL - L/W - A. Mantha, DET ----- Makes Forward group even scarier
16- CAR - G - M. Quick, LAK ----------- If he gets hot this team would be hard to beat
17- VGK - L/W - T. Meier, SJS ---------- What a steal at #17
18- PIT - C - R. Getzlaf, ANA ----------- Getz as #3 Center would make this team near perfect - wanted Rakell / Palmieri but - [Bjugstad out]
19- PHI - RW - K. Palmieri, NJD ------- Underrated player - hate it but good pick
20- WSH - LD - R. Dahlin, BUF -------- Again hate it but Good Pick here at #20 - Dahlin - Carlson Pair would be tough to deal with
21- TBL - RD - R. Ristolanen, BUF --- Risto & Cernak as 1 & 2 - RHDman would make for a long series
22- COL - G - M. Blackwood, NJD --- A young legit #1 Goalie - just dont trust Grubs or Franky
23- STL - RW - R. Rakell, ANA -------- This dude is too good not to get drafted
24- BOS - RW - J. Silverberg, ANA --- Another ANA player traded for here
Subban? Really? I think preds will want hertl for a good C option and I think Doughty falls into our lap. Also doubt anyone wants skinner after this season

LOL, I figured this would drive Leafs fans crazy... I thought Hertl was still hurt? That is the only reason he was not included, but he prob would have went top 10

Maybe he is hurt, I could be wrong on that. But ya, no thanks on subban. I'll take Hronek or Severson

I believe he tore his ACL ??
- Yah, I just picked PK to be a d**k, lol .... I actually thought Getzlaf would have been the perfect pick for yinz but I wanted him for Pens ....
I kno I kno he is old but he still has a lil left in tank & - 34 / 91 / Getzlaf would be a Nitemare down the middle to go against in a series

I was about to say that I'd take a killer 3C like Getz or hischier before PK,
