What’s your solution to get a top five pick. Layout your plan.a smell of green grass wrote: ↑19 May 2025 07:10 am Who gets to watch TOP5 NHL draft picks?
Answer:
1) Hockey Fans in the Final 4 2025 playoff cities, and
2) Almost every hockey fan in NHL cities during EVERY REGULAR SEASON GAME.
Who does NOT GET TO SEE NHL high draft picks in their team jersey---EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
Answer: St Louis Hockey fans
Evidently, some successful teams are prospering from high NHL draft picks. Their teams aren't moving to Saskatoon as a result either!!!
And NEVER FORGET, their fans get to watch these players SINCE THEY WERE DRAFTED EVERY SINGLE REGULAR SEASON GAME!!!! That's not for you, St. Louis, NOT EVER!!!!!
Here we have the 2025 Frozen Four:
McDavid #1
Draisitl #3
Heiskanen #3
Svechnikov #2
Barkov #2

Re: Who gets to watch TOP5 NHL draft picks?
For technique and processes, I would copy what Carolina, Dallas, Florida, and Edmonton did to get their TOP5 pick(s). Then I would fire our scouts, and hire theirs to select our draft pick.

It's not impossible. Very often, the team that wins the CUP has a TOP5 pick that they selected, and that player is the MVP of the playoffs.

That doesn’t answer how you are getting into the top five. The NHL changed the rules to make the Edmonton plan against the rules. No team can take that approach anymore.a smell of green grass wrote: ↑19 May 2025 22:55 pmFor technique and processes, I would copy what Carolina, Dallas, Florida, and Edmonton did to get their TOP5 pick(s).

Re: Who gets to watch TOP5 NHL draft picks?
Those 3 players won cups with other teams did they not? Maybe Buffalo will trade us another like ROR that becomes an integral part of another Blues Cup team.2forDiving wrote: ↑19 May 2025 21:13 pmWhoo Hoo!! Buffalo has another Too 10 pick to celebrate. Think of all those jerseys they are selling. Another parade to celebrate yet another Top 10 pick. That’s absolutely awesome!!! I wonder who gets to carry the Stanley Cup thru downtown for them this year to salute yet another “win” for the most successful NHL franchise the last 14 years. Will it be O’Reilly? Maybe Eichel? How about Reinhart? If only the Blues could be as successful as the Sabres.

What teams are in the Final 4 this year?
Carolina
Florida
Dallas
Edmonton
The Florida Panthers have won 61.5 percent of the time between May 19, 2020 and May 19, 2025.
The Dallas Stars have averaged a win percentage of .568 between May 19, 2020 and May 19, 2025.
The Edmonton Oilers have won 60.2 percent of the time between May 19, 2020 and May 19, 2025.
The Carolina Hurricanes have won 62.8 percent of the time between May 19, 2020 and May 19, 2025.
The St. Louis Blues have won 52.1 percent of the time between May 19, 2020 and May 19, 2025.
In the last 5 years, the winning percentage of St louis is LOWER than each of the 4 playoff teams.
What the facts reveal: Most teams have a Batman and Robin. St. Louis fans only get to watch Robin--FOREVER--because Army loves winning regular season games in the last 4 weeks (when the season is over).![]()
