Yeah, the lottery allowed you to move up 4 spots, making only the bottom 5 teams capable of picking 1st overall if they won the lottery. Which is why 8th place Devils when they won moved up to 4th overall and picked Larsson.
Now there's the same odds to win the lottery but you move up to 1st overall instead of just 4 spots. Giving the lowest ranking team only a 25% chance of keeping the 1st overall instead of 48% in previous years.
