Wow, lots of bitterness over the lottery and lottery system. It is what it is, designed to curtail tanking and I am all for that because there is nothing worse than paying to watch a team tank. I'm not just saying that because the Hawks won and am not gloating like a certain Hawks fan, but because I paid to watch the Sabres tank in past years. The system should be revised to only allow the 5 worst teams the shot at #1-3 in my opinion but allow the other 10 to move up just not into the top 3.
Then you are royally screwing over the 6th worst team, which has no option to move up, only down. And you can be sure that the team in the 6th spot is going to do everything they can at the end to get to the 5th spot, and likewise the 5th place team is going to do everything they can to stay in that spot. So you'd have at least 2 teams tanking pretty hard for sure.
