Sabres perennial last place contender
This year in particular, they have the huge advantage of playing in the toughest division, where any of five teams could still, theoretically, end up in first.

Ottawa has McDavid and Matthews to help them, but they have been faltering lately, going 6-4.

So did that draft lottery rule come into effect this year where teams aren't allowed to draft top 3 more than 2x in the past 5?

No that starts next year and it starts fresh so it will not include the past 5 drafts. Only the top 2 lottery picks count for it so a team could draft 3rd overall as many times as they want
