The futility continues for the Vancouver Canucks.
With the team losing nine of their last 10 games, many fans are turning their attention to the 2017 Draft.
Yet, there is some debate about whether Vancouver should sell assets and “tank” in order to secure a high draft pick.
For one thing, with the current lottery format, there is no guarantee. The 30th-place team has only a 20% chance of picking first overall, and a 52.5% chance of picking in the top-3. So, anti-draftists argue, why give up hope on a season when there is no guarantee of getting the top spot?
