NHL Draft Lottery: Friday June 26th, 8pm EDT

So let's say the COVID situation really amps up over the next few weeks.  Eventually it gets so bad that the NHL in good conscience must cancel the playoffs.  Then how do they decide who gets the top pick?  Shitshow indeed!

Teams 17-24 all get a 12.5% chance at it.

Friendman just now said on TV Sabres are expected to do "new and different things" regarding their scouting. Plan to use a mix of video scouting, analytics, and on the ground.

Drager or Freeman said on Instigators that they might do like the lockout year and repick by giving all 31 teams the same odds.

Up above in this thread or another one, I think if we'd have fallen to 10, he might be our guy. At 8... gotta guess that we're looking at one of those other higher 'ranked' guys. Time will tell!

Never tell me the odds!

So can the new player get assigned #8, or would Rip give him #88?

RIP is keeping 88 because he believes in the Kane to buffalo rumors

So, LA stays 2, Otters stay 3, a playoff team moves to 1 and a tank quality Detroit drops to 4 and every body else out slides down 1?

Detroit fans have to be ticked right now.

They should riot.

I stand by -- Kane is welcome to sign here as a "victory lap" for 2.5M/year after he's finished his current contract. That'd be nice. But no way we trade for him (and wisely, too, unless Chicago is taking Skinner and Okposo for him).

Who cares for Detroit. It’s a ***** city and they already won enough cups.

After we tanked and I complained about the lottery, I promised I would always say the worst team should draft no lower than 2nd. Detroit got screwed.
