Because you'll be watching this with bated breath here is an open thread to wrangle all of you in here. If you need a refresher you can [click here to read more](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/the-toronto-maple-leafs-2010-nhl/) but here's all you need to know:

> ### Odds that the [Toronto Maple Leafs](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/TOR?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) draft first overall - 18.8%
> 
> This is straightforward and it represents the odds that there will be reports of a sniper on top of the Air Canada Centre.
> 
> ### Odds that the Toronto Maple Leafs draft second overall - 42.0%
> 
> These are the combined odds that the [Edmonton Oilers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/EDM?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [Carolina Hurricanes](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/CAR?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [Atlanta Thrashers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/ATL?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [Minnesota Wild](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/MIN?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [New York Rangers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/NYR?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [Dallas Stars](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/DAL?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [Anaheim Ducks](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/ANA?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [Calgary Flames](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/CAL?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), and [St. Louis Blues](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/STL?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) win the draft. If any of these teams win then they are unable to dislodge the Maple Leafs from the second spot.
> 
> ### Odds that the Toronto Maple Leafs draft third overall - 39.2% 
> 
> Only the [Florida Panthers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/FLA?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [Columbus Blue Jackets](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/CLB?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), [New York Islanders](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/NYI?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), and [Tampa Bay Lightning](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/TAM?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) can bump the Leafs from the second spot by jumping four spots.

This is probably the best place to commiserate tonight. Let's hold a electronic vigil and pray for 3rd overall.
