The Stanley Cap

I made some upgrades to the draft pick simulator. You can now specify up to 16 picks which should cover most/all teams drafts. I also added some additional pick ranges to choose (i.e. 6-10 overall). Finally, you can now run the simulation 1, 5 or 10 times. thestanleycap.com/tools/draft_pi…

Thank-you to everyone that visited TheStanleyCap.com today. It was almost certainly our busiest day for traffic ever. If you enjoy what we are trying to build please consider supporting us with a subscription or just help spread the word. Everything helps us keep growing.

Did your team trade for some draft picks today? Were you wondering the quality of players you reasonably expect from those draft picks down the road? Use this draft pick simulator to see the types of players that were taken with those picks in the past. thestanleycap.com/tools/draft_pi…

New Feature Announcement: Weegar was traded for three 2nd round picks. Want to know what a reasonable expectation of value is for those picks? Now you can. Introducing the Draft Pick Value Simulator which can be found under the Analytics menu. (1/5) thestanleycap.com/tools/draft_pi…

Anyway, just a fun little tool for those wondering what the value of the draft picks your favourite team just acquired, or just traded away, is. Maybe you get lucky and get some top tier players. Maybe you get a bunch of busts. Have some fun with it and share your results. (5/5)

Of course, if you run the simulation again, you may not be so lucky. This is my second simulation result. (4/5)

@TageInASlug Fixed. Thanks.

@The_Stanley_Cap No worries, just wanted to make you aware

New Feature: Team cards. Team cards for the current season and the past 5 seasons can be found in the 'Team Cards' tab on team pages.

@TageInASlug Looking into it...

@The_Stanley_Cap Having trouble accessing the Sabres page

BTW, you can copy the URLs from the Team Cards tab and post the image file directly in your posts if you want (Check out Colorado's Skating trend). Feel free to use them in blog posts or websites or wherever you like, just provide a link back to The Stanley Cap website.

Not even out a day and I have a nice enhancement of these team cards. Added to the 2025-26 team cards are 5 year trends. I love Utah's trends, especially for Create, Pen. Kill and Skating. thestanleycap.com/teams/utah-mam…

All we ask is that if you gain value from The Stanley Cap that you consider subscribing or making a donation. In doing so you will be supporting an independently operated ad-free Salary Cap/Analytics website and help to fund future site development. thestanleycap.com/subscriptions

Yes, this will cost The Stanley Cap a valuable revenue stream so this decision wasn't made lightly but the privacy of our users matters. We do no collect any unnecessary data and we would never share it with or sell and visitor tracking data anyone.
