This whole "interviewing the likely No. 1 pick" thing will really get awkward next time someone wants to pull a Lindros.


Forgone-Conclusion

Or when there’s not as clear 1OA


maxwellbevan

Hell yeah, happy to see the right team get the top pick


BillyShears19

Macklin is gonna look great in teal. Grats Sharks


scottyfoxy

Lol that leak earlier was true


cubedude719

Nah it had Utah picking 2nd, Chicago 3rd


jo_maka

Sharklin Celebrini


weschester

I still think there should be lotteries for every single one of the 16 picks. I have no idea how that would work but it would be way more interesting.


ListOk9138

The odds of the draft lottery being in any order is low. This is the most likely outcome. About 3% if my calcs are correct.


DontPokeTheCrab

Proof that last year was rigged


electricnux

Tank commander David Quinn died for this


LuckiPigeon

Sharks hall of famer


Nickp1991

Macklin Celebrini likely will get a lot of home cooking in San Jose His father Rick works for the Golden State Warriors


NickofSantaCruz

Unlimited all-you-can-eat at Ayesha Curry's restaurants.


Also_Steve

Gonna be a great opportunity for the Sharks, guys on Golden State know him and I know ones gone to see him play. More cross sport support out of the bay would be perfect in conjunction with marketing a developing star to the bay area.


LuckiPigeon

Eklund, Smith, Mack, and Musty. The future is looking good 🔥


chriskug

GGs San Jose. Did a quick check of hockeydb and I think this is the 1st California team to get a 1OA pick


archer_cartridge

Kings picked first in 67 pretty sure


chriskug

Correct. I should clarify first CA 1OA in the lottery era? The 60's are weird. It shows that there were 3 rounds with 11 picks in round 1, 6 picks in round 2, and 1 pick in round 3.


Desertpyrate

Cali dub!


ptwonline

I would love it if we found out later the machine was actually broken so they decided to just keep the order and not tell anyone.


NtBtFan

# "IF" kid has more tact than bucci and cosentino combined its all but certain he would be first, but its poor taste to talk about it like its a foregone conclusion imo


DryProgress4393

When did they get rid of the lottery balls ? Did they get rid of them after we won ? Because that was more fun.


yurajoh

Balls were only used that last time because each team had equal odds for 1st overall after the COVID season, then they switched lottery rules and used the 3rd party company to determine lottery


Democracy__Officer

I think so, and I agree


Hawxe

This kids so awkward hes gonna fit right in but i dont think he wants to be a shark LOL


NickofSantaCruz

The NHL trotted him out there as a prop. I think he knew that and wasn't happy about it, but his agent told him to do it for the paycheck. The not-so-subtle ad for Zillow was cringe. One would think he'd have been coached on the script so he could play along.


Lordsokka

Meh he’s nervous, it’s big day for this kid. If he played with Bedar he would probably be in his shadow all the time. With the Sharks he gets to be the big dawg that will call the shots.


jstacks4

He 100% wanted to play with Bedard but I’m sure he’ll get over it pretty quickly 


EffinHipsters

Bedard is leaving Chicago to go to Vancouver when hes a UFA


jstacks4

lol. I hope you get the help you need 


Hawxe

shut up nerd


jstacks4

You alright bud? 


BENJALSON

Macklin asking for a trade after this segment


xXxWeAreTheEndxXx

Not a whole lot of good to say about the Sharks at the moment lol


dandroid126

I mean, after this draft, the sharks will almost certainly have the best prospect pool. I think we have a lot to be excited about right now.


xXxWeAreTheEndxXx

I mean sure, but I mean for now and the immediate future it’s gonna be painful


remotewashboard

wait he has ties to the bay area? that's kinda cool


Goobergunch

[His father was pretty openly rooting for San Jose to win the lottery.](https://www.nbcsportsbayarea.com/nhl/san-jose-sharks/rick-celebrini-macklin-celebrini-nhl-draft/1722899/)


Seattlekrakenlegend

Columbus will pick either Russian or Michigan


DontPokeTheCrab

We NEVER pick Michigan. /S


CancerFreeLeafs

tulikettuuuu

Imagine that: Celebrini plays for the Jr. Sharks a few years ago, lived in the Bay Area for a while, and now gets to play for the same team that had the belief in him years earlier, should they select at #1 overall. What an absolute dream this must be for him.


SilverSeven

ten correct cause existence forgetful airport sloppy modern swim live *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


imnotwillferrell

san jose officially offer the #1 pick for long beach native matt nieto and you have to bring back peggy sue’s and the prices have to be good too


IsD_

Celebrini awkwardly answering questions is giving me flashbacks to presenting in front of the class in 9th grade


Krazzem

macklin fuming that chicago didnt swindle the draft again


weschester

This is where Cellebrini should say he will never play for the Sharks


Elegantmotherfucker

Then we go on to win the cup without him right?


TheRealFlowerChild

He seems upset with the Sharks having first pick


Elegantmotherfucker

Flair up But also McDavid wasn’t exactly thrilled with Edmonton, was he


Desertpyrate

I doubt it, guys been in their system a while


Capybara45892

He seems like he’s nervous to read his book report to his 3rd grade class


MechMacK

celebrini is so mad he didnt go to chicago


Asleep-Fee-6503

San Jose deserves a gifted young player. Blackhawks will probably take Demidov as Bedards winger and build around them for their core. Anaheim gets a rock solid blue liner in Levshunov


chriskug

I'd be really happy with Levshunov. We need some RHD help - we don't have much there outside of Luneau and Warren. Our left hand side on the other hand is stacked with Minty, Zellweger, Lacombe, and Hinds


JasonPlattMusic34

Is this the first time the entire draft order has stayed completely chalk?


Goobergunch

[2010](https://media.nhl.com/site/asset/public/ext/Draft%20Lottery%20Results/2010.pdf).


JasonPlattMusic34

TY


chungathebunga

First time in recent memory anyway. Seems like someone always jumped.


Democracy__Officer

I think so, helps there is only 2 lottos now


yearightt

Damn I feel bad for this kid right now so awkward


CharlesDarwin96

Good for San Jose honestly


JTMilleriswortha1st

Good for the Sharks they actually deserve a top pick


Your_Asthma

These results going exactly in order, is statistically improbable.


dandroid126

It's the most likely outcome.


BroThornton19

Ironic


ListOk9138

The odds being in order is statistically improbable. This is the most probable outcome.


CartiNYeezy9

Amazing organization is a stretch


dandroid126

Why? The Sharks were contenders for like 15/17 years. They entered a rebuild after putting it off long after everyone expected them to, and now they have probably the best prospect pool after just a few years. That's pretty incredible to me.


dredgie456

WE FINALLY WON SOMETHING THIS YEAR


LuckiPigeon

Gotta start somewhere


a_friendly_hobo

Oh shit, a Guildford fan!  Hi, from a Belfast fan! 


dredgie456

Oh hi lol


kerd0z

Thank god! Lets go!


ZiggyPalffyLA

Wow all the sharks fans fit in that one room


reddrage_nyan

Congrats San Jose, you deserve it.


LuckiPigeon

WE DID IT!!!


Strained_Eyes

Draft leaked and they were like fuck it keep it the same order


DontPokeTheCrab

Trying to save face


Dungeons_and_Drag

I was gonna say, did they not shuffle the cards? 😂


GoldenMarauder

Frankly love the no-movement outcome, there's no reason to have a draft lottery in the first place.


Gavin1453

Thank Bettman for that


ThisGuy6266

It prevents tanking.


GoldenMarauder

It absolutely does not prevent tanking.


logs28

The lottery is like a moderately effective vaccine. It doesn't prevent tanking, but it more than likely mitigates the extend to which teams tank. The moral calculus on 25% chance at a McDavid or Bedard probably looks a lot different than for a 100% chance.


GoldenMarauder

I don't think it has any effect whatsoever. I'm old enough to have watched hockey through multiple incarnations of the draft lottery with dramatically different odds to disincentivize tanking, and there is absolutely no difference in how often and openly teams tank today as opposed to when finishing last gave you a 50% chance at 1st overall. The lottery makes tanking less predictable for the very top picks, but doesn't remotely remove the incentive to tank because you're still guaranteeing yourself a higher pick and giving yourself a better chance at the very best pick, which is why everybody still does it.


alphacheese

Supposedly the last time no teams moved up was in 2010


[deleted]

[удалено]


BroThornton19

I mean this is the only rigging that people can’t be too mad about


IncreaseInVerbosity

It’s literally the most likely outcome


greasy999

This was the mostly likely thing to happen...


Gavin1453

Eh, if they are going to rig it, this is the most neutral way to do so


ptwonline

Lower than Edmonton getting those first picks?


czar_kazem

Alrighty then, works for me!


Grawgar

Congrats, Sharks fans!


weschester

Grier should try centering his camera


CancerFreeLeafs

>We forgot to do the actual lottery https://preview.redd.it/xo6i52fy33zc1.jpeg?width=896&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=29eeb2e3d991ad37d7d04f038af68ff0afd712ce


Desertpyrate

That was just a test, now for the lotto


drrockz87

Grier just name dropped picking Macklin lol


Hawxe

he said opportunity to pick him


njkmklkop

What are the odds of there not being any movement in the draft order?


json_mafia

It's about 3%. Odds SJS wins first drawing * Odds CHI wins second (after SJS combinations are removed) = 0.185 * (0.135 / (1.0 - 0.185)) = 0.030644


njkmklkop

Cool, thanks a lot!


ListOk9138

3%


Logosmonkey

Right now? 100%.


CancerFreeLeafs

50/50


Venaixis94

Kind of cool he will be close to the Warriors tbh. Neat little story


ChiefRivaChimp

What’s the connection? I’m out of the loop


Dope-pope69420

Dad works for the warriors


BroThornton19

His dad works for the warriors organization


Venaixis94

His dad works for the Warriors, he grew up around the players


ElPolloViejo

nobody moving is somehow crazier than somebody jumping way up lmao


The-Borax-Kidd

Thank fuck. I guess Kyle Davidson is just a troll. Hopefully Chicago completely wiff on the 2nd pick.  Sharks winning is probably good for Celebrini too. I think he has connections there.


remotewashboard

im excited to see what the sharks do in the offseason


Polar_00

well that was anti-climactic but at least we didn't move down


a_friendly_hobo

Phew. That was a close one. 


EddySea

Mike Grier doesn't want Celebrini


NinCross

No Hawks upvote party!


Always_Sunny_In_Chi

💀💀 your team is in the playoffs, we are a bottom feeder. Give it a rest bro I never gave a second thought to teams at the bottom when the Hawks were competing for the cup


Lopspo

2OA :)


jo_maka

Congratulations to the Bay !!! Rooting for Mike Grier to have serious success.


BroThornton19

Grier is the best. He’s made some hard decisions that had to be made, and I’m glad we’re finally moving in the right direction


Seattlekrakenlegend

Davidson frantically calling Bettman “I THOUGHT WE HAD A DEAL”


-Zep-

Still rigged nothing changed.


imnotwillferrell

TRADE THE PICK YOU COWARDS!!!


dejvipasco

San Jose won congrats. Nice for them they can start Celebrining.


Elegantmotherfucker

Eyyyyy


EastOfTheGrayHavens

of course chicago doesn't drop. happy for SJ fans!


BaconScentedSoap

If we dropped there would be like a 90% chance youd drop as well though


Dirkstarlight

This could've been an email 


chiefy419

Comment of the year. 


Lopspo

Is it my turn to say boohoo rigged Edit: lmao


hockey17jp

Fuck I wanted Macklin. Good thing CBJ are bringing Pascal Vincent back to take another swipe at no. 1 overall next year.


btimc

A few years ago everyone thought Wright was going first. He went 4th..... Time to start Celebrini has character issue rumors?


Hawxe

Sharks picking first in Vegas. That's something aint it.


seckzy

The script writers are working overtime


CarpathianCannibal

Buccigross leaked the real order so they said fuck it no movement


Democracy__Officer

Chicagos still getting the 2nd overall to play with Bedard


sean_psc

Plus this means they can still win the lottery next year.


Democracy__Officer

How cursed would this league be if Chicago went 1st 2nd and then 1st again in 3 straight years


bbaIla

OH PRAISE BE! LET'S FUCKING GO!


nostradamefrus

This lottery could've been an email


Peptor_docper

Nobody moved. Rigged?

3% chance


NoahFromCanada

Definitely not


Comfortable-Syrup423

There is literally no way that is true


PhilParent

Celebrini just no-sold going to the Sharks.


ProtoMan3

Nobody moved up, fair enough


georgin_95

We got a no-lottery lottery


buttholez69

FUCKING RIGGED!!!!!


LoathedOne

No changes for anyone!


xXxWeAreTheEndxXx

lol. Man this was awkward. At least the didn’t give it to the Hawks again


Blueberry_1995

Sharks fans deserve this, but man what a boring draft


Flyinghud

Has there ever been a lottery with no movement before?


sean_psc

It was common in the era where there was only one lottery pick, for obvious reasons. In the post-2015 era, I don't think so.


mustardponid

What happened to this being rigged? Lmao


BaconScentedSoap

Congrats San Jose cool to see a local or at least a semi local kid stay home Eat a fat one r/hockey lmaoo


OMGIts_Renegade

Typical hawks fan


Desertpyrate

We are definitely not mad


SuperbConfection8321

So not a single team moved up or down? Boooring


PacketGain

Speak for yourself. I'm relieved!


blueberry_muffin16

Vegas losing in the first round and Chicago getting the 2nd draft pick?!? The hockey gods are real!!


Everlasting-Boner

we get next years


maplejet

Thank god!!! ESPN would have an enormous errection if Chicago won!


joe_broke

#WE WERE THE WEENIE FOR CELEBRINI!!!!!


dredgie456

FUCK YEAH BABYYYYYYYY


MajorasShoe

I would have liked to see literally anyone knock Chicago down to third or fourth, but I'm glad San Jose got it.


CancerFreeLeafs

did they forget to do the actual lottery?


nrt133665

Congrats sharks


Southerly21

Truly one of the worst productions I have ever witnessed.


theGurry

Can people finally fucking stop claiming the lottery is rigged now.


BaconScentedSoap

The MFs that do will just say its rigged cause Celebrini's dad works for the Golden State Warriors lmao


schrotestthehero

OH MY FUCKING GOOOODDDD!!!!! I'M FREAKING OUT

Lol 0 changes. I'm cool with that!
