Today has to be all about blaming the officiating up in Toronto, and there's plenty of evidence – Morgan Rielly's shot over (?) the line, Marc Staal's elbow to Mitch Marner as regulation ended, Radko Gudas' timely pulling on Calle Jarnkrok's stick…. If we all think that fantasy hockey involves enough luck to fill a pot of gold – or not – the luck in the real-life NHL, from the lottery to hitting crossbars and referee decisions, is at least that much. Arizona has also dropped down from one second, and one third round pick. The Senators also dropped from first overall to fourth in 2019, but they'd traded that pick, so the Colorado Avalanche could settle for Cale Makar. Ottawa has missed two #2 chances since 2018, although their consolation prizes of Brady Tkachuk and Jake Sanderson might have been superior to the higher-selected players. Historically? Yeah, the Ducks were jumped in the 2006 selections by Pittsburgh, or Sidney Crosby would've changed their franchise. In the six drafts, the Anaheim Ducks have slid down a position four times out of the five that they participated, missing out on Bedard and also Matty Beniers (2021). And New Jersey has had two successes, hitting the lottery with Jack Hughes in 2019 and Simon Nemec in 2022. Chicago also had two wins, moving up nine positions in 2019 ( Kirby Dach), in addition to this year (likely Connor Bedard). Lucky? The New York Rangers, who won in two of their three opportunities, moving up a total of 15 draft positions to choose second in 2019 ( Kaapo Kakko), and first in 2020 ( Alexis Lafreniere).
I only looked at teams who picked in the top 10.
Over the past six seasons, we have clear winners and losers.

Thursday, I discussed how to make it more interesting than conducting a lottery in a closed room, in advance, and with mathematical formulas that no one picking the ping pong balls would likely understand. Oh, I will eventually let the NHL draft lottery go…but not quite yet. Playoff Draft List Downloadable interactive spreadsheet.
