Instead of wondering how it'll work... what team do you think will actually win the draft. All shots in the dark, but we'll see if anyone has better intuition over the other:

My random feeling:

San Jose Sharks
 

Morbo

The Annihilator

It'll be one of Rangers, Pittsburgh, Washington, Chicago, Columbus, or Carolina IMO.

Something tells me the Rangers will get him. They were bad enough last year to legitimize a top selection in a weighted draft lottery, and the league could use such a talent in the world's top media market. That reeks of impropriety, but that's how I see it.

I would say in the following order:
1. New York Rangers
2. Los Angeles Kings
3. Chicago Blackhawks

I got a feeling they'll have it so a big city will end up with Crosby, obviously.

I do not believe for a second it would be rigged. In my opinion the lottery will be a weighted system. There is 10 teams or so that have a real good chance to win the lottery. Of course Rangers would be one, Flames would be another, and so.

I think teams like Washington, Pittsburgh and Chicago don't really need him as their youth is set to explode in the next few seasons. Team that I see needing him more are Carolina, Phoenix, etc. Teams that don't currently look fantastic, but don't have exceptional farm systems either.

However, if he ended up in Mtl, I wouldn't complain. :sarcasm:
