then it happens ...
selecting 10th is Arizona (what? wait? where is Ottawa? Then you realize they have one of the top three and the Flames have only 2 left to win. But the Oilers and Canucks are less likely too, the torn feelings!)
9th is Montreal (good Calgary isn't heading down 3 spots!)
8th is Buffalo (ditto!)
7th is Winnipeg (that's it, Calgary won one of the lotteries OMFG!)
Too much fun.

That will be exciting but replace Calgary with Edmonton and follow up OMFG with "they won again?!" Better to prepare ourselves for this, we all know the outcome.
