Is a first round pick that doesn't pan out like signing Christian Hanson?

Well, even the worst first round pick is a little like Schrodinger's Cat. Hanson was more or less a dead cat on arrival.

I think we should draft/notdraft The Cat.

Seems like only yesterday...but 5 years ago already.

Not cool to make up fake websites.  It was believable until you had Bozak centre-ing a different line than Kessel's.  We all know that didn't happen until this past month.

And it's a box that takes 3 years to open.

Did you know at the 2016 draft there will be 3 lotteries, one for each of the top 3 picks. The tank needs to be strong this year to ensure a high pick.

Even last place this year only ensures a 20% shot at McDavid, who ever ends up getting him will have to be very lucky regardless of how low they finish and next year will be even harder to get a high pick.

I don't know what I'd do if we had to endure all of this and we STILL don't get a top-5 pick. Columbus better turn things up.

They're 1 point back with 4 games in hand!

I still worry though. 3 of their next 5 are against 3 of the best teams in the East (NYI, PIT, MTL) and they have 2 against Philly, whose 6-2-2 in their last 10. Games in hand can be deceptive, I hate them.

Well they beat Philly so Columbus passed the Leafs tonight.

Yup.  I was watching that go to a 3 point game and then saw CLB win it.  Jumped out of my seat.  Now watching NJ trying to win against Chicago.

In OT no doubt. So the Leafs fall into the bottom 5. Nice.

Would be nice if Arizona could string together some wins though.

When asked about my retirement, I always thought it sounded flaky to say my plan was to win the lottery.  But if the great hockey minds think it's the way for the Leafs to win the Cup, it's good enough for me.

 

[Highlander]

I'm in for the Powerball in AZ, thinks its up to over 500 million.  Nice to dream!

If you win, please buy the Coyotoes, move them to Markham and call them the Leafz.  Then we can all have something to cheer for.

McKenzie has two Leafs scouts one of whom is DPP Mark Hunter taking in the Monarchs game.

Please don't be for Richards.

From Monarchs game:

Andy Tonge @AndyTonge1  ?  2 hours ago
FWIW: Been told a third Toronto Maple Leafs scout is here tonight. He was a last-minute attendee, thus not on seating chart.

He also said this:

TSNBobMcKenzie: Last line of last tweet was probably most important element but it may get overlooked, so I'll say it again: Nothing cooking at this time.

Also, a few days ago, Elliotte Friedman posted that the Kings were willing to do a Phaneuf deal that included Richards. The Leafs said no to Richards being part of it.

Preview of the 2014-2015 Upper Deck Mike Richard's card photo?

 

[TML fan]

Do the Kings have the cap space to take on Phaneuf without the Leafs taking Richards in return?
