The Death of the Ping Pong Balls: Re-thinking the NHL Draft Lottery

I was an observer of this community for the 2014-15 season. Glad to have found a community of people that obsessed about the Sabres and the draft as much as I was, but reluctant to make a FanPost because I felt I wasn’t knowledgeable enough to contribute. Then the infamous Coyotes game happened, the fans cheered when we lost, and Mike Weber was NOT happy. So I wrote him an open letter which I published here.

This past week there were reports that the GMs (at least some of them) were not happy with the current NHL draft lottery and were seeking changes to it.
