Draft rules were obviously too easy
People keep joking/cryin' that the Knights have more playoff wins than the Flames in a decade. Guess what, they have more playoff wins than 13 teams (almost half the league) in the last decade. Its ridiculous.
Also I'm hearing they won't lose a player with Seattle expansion? WTF is that bull####

Panthers left 30 goal scorer on an ELC unprotected so isn't that their own fault? Reilly Smith was acquired for a 4th round pick from the Panthers which had nothing to do with the draft. The Penguins actually threw in a 2020 2nd round pick for Columbus to take Fleury's contract (this rather than accept a trade offer from the Flames). The Blue Jackets protected Brandon Dubinsky over Karlsson. Honestly if anything this draft proved how teams have a difficult time accessing and developing the talent in their own systems. I simply feel the NHL has a management problem in that too many GM's aren't very good at their jobs.
