The NHL has to fix this. It is unwatchable . Two months before the season ends and the bottom teams have their AHL teams dressed. It needs to be an even weighed lottery for the non playoff teams.

I stopped watching the Winnipeg game and am watching Big Brother side show. The product is unwatchable.

I like the idea...still get the call-ups, but the deliberate tanking for top draft positions would disappear

I think even drawing the odds in much closer while still keeping in weighted would have it's desired effect.

Why not just make the 14 non playoff teams even weight?

Good game day gents - got a questions for y'all

Benning mentioned that he got his eye on a few FAs just wondering who you seriously think he/we could get??? Stamkos being a pipe dream of course....

I was thinking Boedker, Okposo, McGinn, Stewart might be decent pick ups - they kinda remind me of Sutter - middle age vets, not breaking the bank and slotting in on a wing possibly

Because the true bottom teams need the help more.

That would be kind of like having just one tax bracket.

I don't think there is more than a 20% chance of Stamkos signing here but it is not out of the Question.

I think the Sedins Edler Tanev could be more attractive towards winning than TOs roster.
There are only maybe 4 teams with the cap space to do it.

If we did win a top three pick that might also be attractive to him.

Like I said unlikely but not impossible

The bubble teams are NJ Car Col Phi Minny. I don't think their rosters are much better than ours. I don't see why we have to have a big advantage. Even Toronto had Kessel and Phanuef who made their roster comparable to the bubble teams. It is not Col. fault that TO wants a rummage sale.

Two weeks ago we were neck and neck with Col Nj Phil and Minny.

I think he said one of each????

Gologoski or Demers would be decent IMO

Aside from the Capitals there is as much of a difference in points between the bubble teams and the bottom feeders as there is the bubble teams and the league leaders. Why limit it to non-playoff teams then?

Some sports still don't have a lottery, if you finish last you pick first.

Your guess is as good as mine. I imagine the market will be high.

The problem is the product is starting to stink. I am not even watching the early game . I tried watching but it was brutal.

They need to find a way to make it more competitive right to the last day .

I don't have anyone in mind. I would rather target trades than UFAs
