    Default NHL Draft Lottery - June 26

    The draft lottery is set for June 26. The first live event since the coronavirus lockdown began.

    Pretty exciting. Format is peculiar but it makes sense. Will post more details but kinda hard for me on mobile right now.

    12 team H2H Most Cats Wins; Keep 6/winner keeps 7; G A PPP +/- SHP SOG HIT BLK PIM // W SV GAA SV% SHO
    3 C, 3 LW, 3 RW, 6D, 2G, 5 bench

    C - McDavid, Crosby, Tavares
    LW - DeBrincat
    RW - Meier, Miller
    D -
    G - Jarry

    That date is perfect. Avoids 7/4. NBA won’t be playing yet. MLB not yet set. But the place-holder thing???

    12-team, H2H. Keep 12, but drop 2 of top four skaters, and also 2 of next six, then five more (from end-of-year rankings). One GK max.

    Yeah I am already seeing some drawbacks to that idea. But I think it could work. It would be pretty funny if 3 placeholder slots won hahaha

    Placeholders eliminate the possibility of a team winning the lottery and also making the playoffs.

    Can someone explain how detroit still has the best odds of 1st overall if they have an 18.5 percent chance but Ottawa has both a 13.5 and an 11.5 percent chance? Shouldnt that be a 25 percent chance at 1st?

    Generally they are talking about best odds of a specific pick being first with "best odds". In this case, you are right that if you have 2 picks with chances that large, you will have a 25% chance that you are picking first.

    Alright, that's what I thought. Got confused by Ryan Kennedy's article stating that detroit still had the best chance at 1st overall.

    I've been a Flames fan all my life, but have always had love for the Sens. Really hoping they make out like bandits this year.

    Maybe what he meant was that the NHL could've come up with something like during the 2005 lockout where they decide that the results from the past 3 years count. Or that the bottom teams all get the same %. Maybe.

    So the 9th best team in the league could end up with the 1st overall pick, and it would have the same % like the 24th best team? Makes sense.

    no, they already said its going to be 8 losers that will get a chance. Placeholders are match-ups not actual teams. So this eliminates a team tanking in 5 game series to get that top pick in case that slot 8-15 wins phase 1 of the lottery.

    If they miss the playoffs, are they really the 9th best team in the league? In my opinion we won't know the 16 "best" teams in the league until the play-in series are all concluded. It's an odd approach, but I do think it's the fairest.

    My hope is that no placeholder teams win a top 3 pick, eliminating the need for Phase 2.

    According to my math it's a 60% chance that at least one "placeholder" will get a top 3 pick.

    Yah so if a placeholder wins a top 3 pick then the 8 losers have a separate lottery later for the pick and all 8 losers have same odds. So back to the original point, no team can make the final 16 team playoffs and win the lottery.
