The Devils will be very happy if the season is toast. That much closer to Lafrenierre.
Wait... if the season is toast, NJ will not participate in the Phase 2 Laffy Lotto... right?
EDIT: They have Arizona's 1st, but it's lottery protected, Coyotes' win and NJ gets their 2021 pick instead - I think
Tampa traded our conditional 1st in the Miller trade to the Devils. They get our 2020 1st (or can choose to) if there is no season.
Yes but if they get our pick, it will be 16th or 20th (can't remember) = it will not be part of the Laffy Lotto.
There is no choice involved...

In light of this from the NHL, I wonder what happens to our pick should we lose to Minnesota and then somehow win the lottery?

From NHL press release tonight: "Teams participating in a best-of-five series during the Stanley Cup Qualifiers are considered to have made the postseason and participated in a postseason series."

Following up on this, I’m told the #Canucks requested clarification on this matter from the NHL.
League confirmed with the club that if VAN was to lose to the Minnesota Wild in the qualifying round, they *won’t* have made the playoffs and will retain their Phase 2 lottery pick.

At least he admitted he was drinking when he posted, others (excluding me of course) not so sure they were drinking when they post what they post....

It’s tough when you’re too drunk to know if you’ve been drinking.
I should get a job writing lyrics for country singers.

When the fix is on at the league, we will never get 1st overall pick. This is what makes the 'team tank' people silly.
Bingo and the worst team in the league by a far margin ends up with 4th overall lol.
New order:
Canes take the leaves pick this year due to Marleau cap dump trade, top 10 protected.

A lot of chatter regarding whether the Rangers draft by position or BPA. Unfortunately for them the least position in need is Left wing with Kreider and Panarin and Lafrenierre. The position in need is centre. After Zibanejad it’s a big drop off. No proper 2nd Lind Centre material after Zibanejad. Right wing looks excellent with Kappo and Kravtsov
Do the Rangers consider centres Byfield, Stutzle or Rossi? Would you approach Ottawa and see if they do the 3rd and 5th for Lafrenierre. You grab Stutzle with the 3rd and one of Rossi, Drysdale or Perfetti with the 5th? Tough choice, but you can’t pass up on Lafrenierre imo. Trade Kreider for a centre
