Yes. Because non-lottery first-round picks are also far from worthless.

They would need to re-acquire Taylor Hall if they want a shot at winning the lottery.

Can you imagine the bidding war on Taylor Hall among lottery eligible teams if UFA precedes the draft lottery!?!?!?

I wonder what player(s) have been on the 2nd most lottery winning teams? Or phrased differently, on teams that went on to select 1OA several times since the lottery isn't that old. Any early 90's Nordiques also on terrible teams before/after? Mid 90's Senators?

Too bad for Gary he won't have a crowd. Could be the first time he got cheered

He had to do his own makeup.


That's a pretty nice chair, Gary.

That one in the background? I think he probably stole it from Versailles.

Regular season is over. No 50 goal season for Ovechkin. What will it mean for the Lucic trade conditions?

----------

Maximum of 50 team personnel in each hub city.

----------

No dates or cities to announce yet. Still waiting for things to sort out before making choices.

Vancouver, Edmonton, Toronto all still in contention to be the hubs. LA is surprisingly in the mix.

----------

Bracket or seeding for the playoffs still TBA.

In the unlikely event that all three draft lottery picks are from the non winning first round pool, how many teams try to lose the first round?

Yup. It's like someone thought the yellow wall was too boring, so he went and grabbed the fancy chair to put behind him.
