Just curious how we will be doing the draft lottery this year. I think we agreed to adopt the NHL style of having the top 3 picked in the lottery? Also, with Vegas thrown in the mix, how are we going to assign the NHL teams to our DHL teams? Maybe have the team with the 3rd slot select if they want Vegas or AZ, so if they lose they wont be bitter. Then every other team moves up 1 spot?
Here are the NHL odds...
Colorado Avalanche 18.0% Vancouver Canucks 12.1% Vegas Golden Knights* 10.3% Arizona Coyotes 10.3% New Jersey Devils 8.5% Buffalo Sabres 7.6% Detroit Red Wings 6.7% Dallas Stars 5.8% Florida Panthers 5.4% Los Angeles Kings 4.5% Carolina Hurricanes 3.2% Winnipeg Jets 2.7% Philadelphia Flyers 2.2% Tampa Bay Lightning 1.8% New York Islanders 0.9%

We will be using the same rules as last year but can look at voting in the 3 team system the nhl uses moving forward if there is enough interest. Only two teams posted they wanted to do this and it was never put to a vote so we can do this in the offseason. I'll post up the draft lottery section, the NHL draft lottery is April 29th.

haha, yeah I woulda loved the three pick rule for this year, but what can you do! Going forward its worth discussing though. It would give the top 8 picks a little more value in trades maybe? We will vote on a few rules in the next few weeks and will include that one to gauge interest.
