 Hi Everyone,

 

Before getting into the final draft odds and the lottery itself, a reminder of the rules regarding the Draft Lottery:

Quote

The first six picks of the first round of the VHL Entry Draft work on a lottery structure. For the purposes of Standings, non-playoff teams will rank 11-16, regardless of Regular Season points earned (i.e. If Toronto finishes in 6th place in the North American conference, but had more points than two European conference Playoff teams, they will be considered 11th Place in the standings, despite finishing with the 9th most points in the league, overall).

 

The odds for winning the lottery are based on the VHL's regular season standings, and begin as follows as outlined in Section 9.2:

 

16th Place: 25.0%
15th Place: 20.0%
14th Place: 17.5%
13th Place: 15.0%
12th Place: 12.5%
11th Place: 10.0%

Only non-Playoff teams are eligible for the Draft Lottery. The maximum spots a team can move down is 1 spot. If the result of the lottery still allows teams to move down a maximum of one spot, there will be additional lotteries until teams may no longer move down.

 

*An additional reminder that, should any subsequent lotteries be needed after 1st Overall has been decided, the odds will change depending on the winning team

i.e. Should a team with 10% odds of winning the lottery win 1st Overall, their "tickets" will be removed from the lottery and the following lottery will be conducted as odds of x/90, rather than x/100.

 

Please keep in mind that the Draft Lottery Tournament was removed, and is no longer being used to adjust odds after the regular season's conclusion. From the conclusion of the S94 Regular Season and Spirit of Competition rule violations and punishments, these are the final draft lottery odds:
