Predict the Lottery!

1. I hope Arizona, but itll probably be Buffalo
2. Chicago
3. Edmonton

 

[Kcb12345]

Why? Their odds are pretty low, that would be a pretty unsurprising outcome.

NHL can't have one of their top liked teams and biggest franchises near the bottom of the league. They will do everything to get them back to the top. I would not be surprised at all if the Hawks win a lottery pick.

I have a feeling Buffalo will go ally get some luck and win it. If the Islanders somehow won with the Calgary pick that would just be a disaster for flames lol

 

[Joey Moss]

Edmonton wins lottery.. butthurt fans proceed to come to the Oiler board and flip out just like last time.

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

1) Edmonton
2) Chicago
3) Islanders via Calgary

Fingers crossed for the ultimate meltdown here

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

Top 5:

1. Arizona
2. Buffalo
3. Edmonton
4. Ottawa
5. Detroit

Not possible

 

[McShogun99]

I wont predict the order but I think the top 3 will be 1 team that finished in the 1-3 range, 1 team that finished in the 7-9 range and 1 team that finished in the 4-6 range.

The most entertaining result for the forum would be;

1.Edmonton
2.NYI via Calgary
3. Philly via STL

The Philly pick is top 10 protected. If St Louis wins a lottery pick then they are most likely keeping it

Edmonton wins lottery.. ******** fans proceed to come to the Oiler board and flip out just like last time.

For everyone who would come to flip out, the lottery was built to reward them for not tanking, as they had a good finish and could be higher haha

 

[ViktorBaeArvidsson]

Stars win it and trot out

Lindell-Klingberg
Dahlin-Honka
Heiskanen-Johns

on the blue line next year

Scary defense right there if it becomes a reality. Even without Dahlin the Stars blue line looks like it'll be really good.

 

[Metal God]

I cant believe the Oilers have a chance to win the lottery AGAIN!! Talk about tank dynasty.

 

[FlameChampion]

1. Vancouver
2. Montreal
3. Edmonton

Fortunately, this isn't how the real world works.

And, you really shouldn't be surprised either way, because of basic statistical facts. They may well win, and will more than likely not.

 

[JLarucci23]

Uncle Gary needs my Hawks to be relevant next year, plus he owes us for all those outdoor games we played for him.
Hawks will win the Dahlin!!!

 

[La Bamba]

1. Detroit
2. Vancouver
3. Buffalo

if anyone wants to predict the powerball, ill take that too.

Powerball is fairer.

I didn't know it was protected. If there's a team that deserves a lottery win it's STL.

 

[Pyrophorus]

1. I hope Arizona, but itll probably be Buffalo
2. Chicago
3. Edmonton

I can deal with that, though I do so hope its Zona
Sink the Atlantic teams deep...

 

[Gnashville]

Carolina
Florida
NYI via Calgary
Reward teams that tried to make the playoffs plus keep the highest talent in the East

I didn't know it was protected. If there's a team that deserves a lottery win it's STL.

...which is exactly why Chicago will win it.

You do know the NHL has no control over the lottery right?
