I assume there will be a fair amount of complaining/speculating no matter how it turns out, so we might as well contain it to one thread.

Hah, I was in the middle of composing a similar thread, but you beat me to it! FYI the simulator is here:

The info on how the lottery works is here:
https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-draft-lottery-format-details/c-280501578

Supposedly the announcement will be made circa 5pm PDT.

Ha, Burke commented about wanting to throttle someone for cutting to commercial right before the top two in the Crosby Lottery. Enjoy that wait again!

Rooting for CBJ, Arizona, or Calgary. Also watching the coverage and this is boring af.

The HNIC feed has been asking all the GMs whether they have a lucky charm with them, but yup.

Which GMs are there?

Simulator has only given me scenarios I like so far (Arizona and Montreal), so choosing to believe in its predictive power.

Such dramatic music on NBC.

And this excessive commentary over it.

Shout out to the host for making "for the first time ever 7 Canadian teams" sound like an accomplishment.

This has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever watched. All these shocking factz!!!

I'm glad we don't have a draft.

Coyotes stay at 7. I'm sad. :(

Bright side, Winnipeg got a lottery slot!

So did the Jackets, apparently!

I was hoping at least one American team would wiggle in there, so I'm glad.

OILERS DIDN'T GET A LOTTERY SLOT!

Proof of a benevolent god afaic.

Note to self: avoid Steve Dangle from here on out.

What did he do?!

He's just going to be very, very smug.

DA

I'm assuming they mean he's going to obnoxiously like hype about the Leafs winning.

Hard to do in Toronto a city full of Steve Dangles.

I have found listening to SDP is a lot better on 1.5 speed. But yeah, he's going to be extra obnoxious now.

Apparently living in Southern Ontario has made me enough of a low-key leafs fan that I actually cried happy tears when the Leafs won the lottery.

I wish this hadn't been right before a game. I've missed the entire first period reading lottery reaction stuff.

I wish it hadn't been because now I get to be mad about the lottery and this game at the samw time.

You had to give him to the Leafs. Ugh. Just ugh.
