Randall Flagg Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 my first ten clicks gave Buffalo zero McDavids, and gave Arizona four McDavids.After 600 clicks, Buffalo only won 16.2% of the time. After 3,000, Buffalo won McDavid 590 times, for 19.7%. Quote

Spelling out Connor McDavid in ASCII is a nice touch. :) Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 First go ... Oilers #1; Sabres #2. Did it 5 times .. Oilers #1 - 3 times; Sabres #1 - twice. After 10 times ... Oilers #1 - 4 times; Coyotes #1 - 3 times; Sabres #1 - twice and LA Kings once. Sheesh ... NS out. Quote

TM8-PL16 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 I fully expect Toronto to win the lottery... it's fixed. Do you really think the lottery for Crosby was legit? I don't. That's why we HAVE to finish last to get Eichel at #2. but I did the simulator 100 times and Sabres got 21 first picks, followed by Carolina at 19... Quote

That's why we HAVE to finish last to get Eichel at #2. I'm not sure Toronto will win. They're still immensely profitable and marketable even when losing. If the fix is in, I'd bet on a struggling team in a non-traditional market: ARI, FLA, CBJ, CAR, in that order. Quote
Brawndo Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) Did it ten times, CBJ 4 TOR 3 FLA, EDM and CAR once each. Yeah I am done Marek and Wyshynski did their M vs W Podcast yesterday and they talked about if they were members of the Orr Player Management Group where they would want their client Mc David to end up. Marek said Buffalo makes the most sense and Wyshynski agreed with him Edited February 5, 2015 by BRAWNDO Quote

Yeah, 20% McDavid, 80% Eichel sounds much better than 13.5% McDavid, 20% Eichel, 66.5% someone else. Of course, there's another big drop-off from 29th to 28th. While the chance of McDavid, specifically, doesn't fall much (11.5% vs. 13.5%), the chance of of getting either one is cut by 2/3 again: 30th: 100% chance of McDavid or Eichel 29th: 33.5% chance of McDavid or Eichel 28th: 11.5% chance of McDavid or Eichel Quote
That Aud Smell Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 My first flick was the feckin KINGS. Quote
shrader Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 My first flick was the feckin KINGS. Don't worry. They'll pull the usual Kings move and squeak into the playoffs. Quote
qwksndmonster Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 I ran the simulator 2015 times. On the 2015th time, the Sabres won the lottery. We win McDavid guys Quote
Swedesessed Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 First click: Sabres win. I'm not clicking any more times. This is my reality now. :thumbsup: In truth I feel 99.9% sure Bettman will rig this draft to suit the needs of the teams like Toronto, Philadelphia or some other bigger market. Just finish last and we get Jack Eichel and he will be a franchise player too. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 I got it up to 30,000, and we still never hit 20% victories. Topped out at 19.8%. Edmonton was always at least a half percentage higher than their standing position indicates. Rigged. Quote

BuffaloBorn Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 Did it a million times Sabres were always in the top 2 every time Quote
Randall Flagg Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 Did it a million times Sabres were always in the top 2 every time That's the important thing :thumbsup: Quote
CallawaySabres Posted February 6, 2015 Report Posted February 6, 2015 Did it ten times, CBJ 4 TOR 3 FLA, EDM and CAR once each. Yeah I am done Marek and Wyshynski did their M vs W Podcast yesterday and they talked about if they were members of the Orr Player Management Group where they would want their client Mc David to end up. Marek said Buffalo makes the most sense and Wyshynski agreed with him yup, I did it 10 times and zip for Buff. They better finish last. Quote
krt88 Posted February 6, 2015 Report Posted February 6, 2015 Ran it 100 times, Sabres won exactly 20 times! Quote
