The only saving grace is they don't have to play at MSG so they MIGHT have a chance.

The Hurricanes are 20-46-4-5 at MSG all time.

They've won only one game at MSG since 2010.

So...we want to beat the Huricanes, have them win the lottery, have Columbus beat the Leafs and have the leafs move into the top 10?

That would be the ideal situation for you, yes.

If you beat the Canes, and they win the draft lottery, AND Columbus knocks out the Leafs resulting in their pick being in the top 10, the Rangers would get the 1st overall pick.

Unlikely, but possible.

Why wouldn’t the Canes keep the Leafs pick? I think it’s optional. Either way that can happen anyway, both teams just have to lose

Couple of other notes from Return-to-Play protocol: Two exhibition games per team; 28 skaters and as many goalies as you wish to carry.

Leafs pick has top 10 protection --- Toronto would keep 2020 pick and Carolina would receive a 2021 pick from Toronto instead.
The clause in Carolina deal with us is we get the lower 2020 pick from the Hurricanes for Brady Skjei. If Toronto keeps their 2020 pick, we HAVE to get Hurricanes first rounder because that will be the only pick they have. Very complex --- but it works!

As Ranger fans: We want Toronto to lose to Columbus and Rangers to beat Hurricanes! And let the lotto balls fall in our favor!

I'm sort of with you there. We had their number on Black Friday until that wet fart of a third period. I think we are a really bad matchup for them and now we have a fully healed and rested Shesty.

It's a weird situation for the rangers where winning actually boosts their chances of winning the draft lottery.
