EDIT: The simulator is wrong. It has Toronto in 10th... they're in 9th. Stoopid Oilers.

WTF, I've been sitting here for a few mins just hitting the button to simulate and Ottawa just will not win, but just about every other team has. Edmonton, Atlanta, NYI, Florida, Colorado, St. Louis... the hatred!!!!


Edit: Add Minnesota to the list too.

EDIT: And Boston.... and Now Columbus... and Carolina....

YAY! Ottawa finally wins one!!!

It would matter if it was the Bruins with Toronto's pick that did the bumping.

Last year NHL.com was streaming the event live. Anyone know if this is going to be streamed online anywhere? Our friend in the Far East may want to check it out.

It would be massive to go from 5th to 1st. Don't downplay that fact. You get THE guy you want no questions asked.

NHL.com says it will stream it live but then adds "...in the US." I hope that doesn't mean it's *only* available in the US.

Plus, TSN starts its coverage before the actual draft, with likely some last-minute ranking of the top 5 or top 10. Will TSN.ca stream it live?

Not sure if it's on TSN.ca... can't seem to find any mention of it... I would think it would be... but who knows.

It definitely will be on the radio (Team1200) which you can stream. I don't think the visual is all that important. Also, Bryan Murray will guest on the station following the lottery which should be interesting.

There is live blogging...

"You can also follow coverage with TSN.ca's live blog beginning at 7:30pm et/4:30pm pt. "

Looks like Team1200.com can only be streamed using IE. I don't think it was like that last time I streamed.

I stream it with FF all the time... here's a screen shot of it streaming just now...

Murray says he likes one guy over everyone else...no other guy there said that.

Bob McKenzie's Top 10 (based on scouts votes)

1: Ryan Nugent-Hopkins
2: Adam Larsson
3: Gabriel Landeskog
4: Jonathan Huberdeau
5: Sean Couturier
6: Ryan Strome
7: Dougie Hamilton
8: Ryan Murphy
9: Duncan Siemens
10: Mika Zibanejad

Larsson and Landeskog also got first place votes

When I tried with FF (I'm using FF Portable, btw) the Listen Live window popped up but wouldn't play.
