Description

3 straight years of falling 2 spots in the draft for some reason. While NJ wins it twice. Chicago and NYR somehow jump up to #2/#3. The NHL should be forced to televise the balls dropping.

Cant be any worse than this year, hopefully some of these kids step up to the plate. Abby gets sent to Robidas Island with Seabrook, Hossa, Clarkson, Zetterberg, etc maybe he gets a rash from his equipment or hurts his back, either way take one for the team that's the least he could do. Useless waste of a roster spot.

Yes, the best prospect pool definitely needs draft luck

Ding ding ding!

It’s not about what we already have it’s the fact that even when the Kings are one of the worst teams in the league they rarely get a lottery pick. Meanwhile they give it to teams that already got two in a row like EDM and a team like NJD who got 2 in 3 years... Detroit has been a great team for years and years until the last 5 years or so. I hope there pick is outside the lottery lol

Dont think the NHL owes any team anything lol. How would you feel if you were a mediocre team and all of a sudden the NHL was helping a team lower than you with the draft to get better picks? Isnt exactly the most fair thing in the world ya know. I think Detroit has had a dynasty long enough that they can handle a couple years of the basement.
