Other than the current system, the only other system that I see as fair is if there was a set rotation for the picks... So each team would pick 1st every 30 years.

Penguins tanked for Lemieux, that's been admitted by people who worked with the organization at the time. Lots of people think the Senators tanked for Daigle (lol, that worked out well), and after that one the league finally came up with a draft lottery.
Maybe it doesn't happen very often, but there's no way it's never happened.
