They could do all sorts of stuff to massage the odds. Maybe if you win the 1st overall pick, the next year your odds drop by 50% of whatever your odds would've been. It's not rocket science.
Or you just let the Oilers keep winning and rename them the Edmonton Oners

I like where they're going with the goalie equipment. Would be interesting to see the new streamlined gear for the World Cup in September.
Yes, I think both Laine and Puljujarvi are overrated (and Matthews for that matter). Laine is just too slow, yes he has a fantastic shot, but he has zero foot speed.... won't translate well to today's NHL. I really like Chychrun, a lot.
