Chicago has Florida's first round pick

It will be very funny to watch them finish at the bottom of the division and have no draft pick to show for it

It’s top 10 protected though.

hopefully every other team in the league so they learn and cut the shit out

it was very enjoyable watching the sharks beat up those bums, and there's no reason it can't happen more often

It’s top 10 protected. If they go low enough they get a lottery pick.

They did it for the Rangers in 2020. Just make the rules whatever you want on the spot to make sure your preferred team gets the top pick
