    I felt so bad for the Winnipeg fans last night. Great game, great energy. First home playoff game there in 19 years. Lose a heart breaker in OT. The Jets and Senators are both down 3-0, yet both are playing pretty good playoff hockey. Many other teams have won games (Caps) despite playing much worse.

    Yeah oooook. The lottery is there to deter teams from tanking, Buffalo and Toronto clearly tanked. Too bad for them. That's why there's a lottery.

    You want to bitch at somebody bitch at the guy who picked the Oilers ping pong ball out of the bin.

    Can't wait for McJesus.

    I'm just upset because I was looking forward to watching McDavid becoming a star...

    So much for that career. Edmonton here he comes

    Right I'm just confused by the sudden outrage over there being a lottery. Blame the guy who picked the ping pong balls out of the bin..... There was a lottery for the Crosby, Ovechkin, Tavares and Stamkos drafts too.

    I have always been against the lottery. Its presence clearly doesn't deter tanking.

    It's stupid and they should limit the teams in it to maybe 4

    weighted lotteries are foolish

    if you want to deter tanking then stop rewarding teams for losing.

    Until you do, teams like Buffalo will continue to dump all NHL talent in order to lose as much as possible.

    Hats off to the Ducks and Bruce Boudreau on getting a playoff sweep. Winning in Winnipeg is not easy and they dominated. I feel bad for the Jets fans but good for that Ducks team. I don't like looking too far forward but a potential Blackhawks-Ducks WCF would be sweet.

    Pierre McGuire is terrible. All he ever does is state the obvious that everyone already knows.
