You shouldn't expect a high pick in this year's draft for Karlsson. He's going to want to sign with a contender and they won't have a lottery pick to give up.
Ottawa was one goal away from the SCF one yr & found themselves in the lottery draft the next yr. Edm was also a pretty good team two yrs ago & also found themselves in the lottery. Detroit was not a bad team a few yrs ago & are steadily declining & could use a boost. Whose to say that a team who is in the lottery this yr may not be a contender next yr especially given what an expansion team has done this yr? EK might like Detroit & turn them into a playoff team & it's not that far a flight from Ottawa to Detroit, just ask Alfredsson.
