Coyotes will get first pick.
Bettman will make sure of it so 'hockey in the desert can work'
New rink, hot new team to come. It's time.

I hope Coyotes get him as I have Keller.
I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.
Blackhawks will get him to "turn the page" and remove the stigma of their past. Kane & Toews will both be traded before Bedard steps foot on the ice with either of them.
Blackhawks and their obvious tank will lose out on the lottery because that's how the hockey gods work.

2 Teams I don't want to get Bedard, and that's been my only wish all yr.
Montreal - I'm a Leaf fan. Self explanatory.
Chicago - That organization doesn't deserve Bedard.
Teams I'd be happy see get Bedard:
CBJ - they could have tanked hard in the offseason, but they tried to win. Injuries just got them. This is the team I like seeing win.
Everyone else is either in the West and I want to see Bedard, or like Montreal/Philly that I don't care for.

There was a little bit of me that was sad Habs got 1st round pick last year as it meant won't get it this year (we aren't Edmonton!).
Also Habs are likely to break the NHL record of games lost due to injury... which was set last season (numbers exacerbated by the NHL’s Covid protocol) by the Habs.
Doesn't matter who we get if the team is just going to be this injured not going to win.

My current Bedard-situ is that I don't want my "lottery-tied" pick in my keeper league (WHL) to match up with NHL-Chicago.
I'm currently in "2nd last", could shift to "3rd last" - and I'll be paired up with whatever NHL team finishes at same spot.
If the NHL has any shred of deviousness to it... it will rig the lottery so Chicago doesn't win Bedard.
That would be... just awful...
I mean... I'd like to think I have good ethics... but if I'm an insider with the NHL lottery system...
I would love a possible world where Chicago simply doesn't (really) have a shot at the #1 pick.

Guys at spitting chicklets are convinced Arizona getting him as it makes way too much sense "politically". Bittman invested hard in Phoenix and has stayed the course way into the red here. Bedard going there could be the spark that makes it a genuine hockey market and finally pays back on the investment. I don't think anyone's suggesting tampering but the league would benefit in so many ways if things went down that way.
I've said from day one I think Larkin has always been Yzerman plan for a 2c- and Bedard as "the guy" in Detroit would be the stuff of legends. It would also reward all the teams drafting raymond and seider too high lol!!
My "off the board" pick is Columbus- werenski and kj stocks would erupt- Laine could carve out a HIF career...
Having McDavid go to the Oilers is the best proof that the lottery isn't guided by the NHL's commercial marketing hand. That being said, if the NHL wants to do it here, then getting him to a big, eastern time zone market is what's called for. Arizona might be the only outlier because as stated above, he helps "prove" that Arizona is a hockey market.
