The Tampa Bay Lightning have been forced to temporarily close down their practice facility after multiple players and staff members tested positive for the coronavirus, TSN’s Bob McKenzie reports. Can we just cancel the friggin' season? My guess is thats whats going to happen. Hockey isn’t NASCAR (everyone already wears helmets/masks) or golf, (outside without much close contact)...those sports made sense to open. Guys breathing hard, hitting each other, in each others faces...with no masks...can’t work right now. So, what do they do if in the middle of a series one or both teams have some players test positive? |

NEW YORK (June 22, 2020) – The National Hockey League announced today that Phase 1 of the 2020 NHL Draft Lottery will be conducted at NHL Network’s Secaucus, N.J., studio on Friday, June 26, at 8 p.m. ET.
The event will be broadcast live on NBCSN and NHL Network in the U.S. as well as Sportsnet and TVA Sports in Canada.
Following the conclusion of the program, the general manager of the winning team and top-ranked North American skater Alexis Lafreniere will be available to media via Zoom – only if a team from the #1-7 group, as outlined below, wins the top pick. Call details will be shared later this week.
Reminder: 2020 NHL Draft Lottery Format
* The top three picks in the 2020 NHL Draft will be awarded via the 2020 NHL Draft Lottery: the 1st Lottery Draw will determine the team selecting first overall, the 2nd Lottery Draw will determine the team selecting second overall and the 3rd Lottery Draw will determine the team selecting third overall.
* The 2020 NHL Draft Lottery will be held in two phases, if necessary.
* Fifteen teams will be eligible in Phase 1 of the 2020 NHL Draft Lottery (which will be held June 26): the seven teams that already have not qualified for the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs – ranked in inverse order of their points percentages at the time of the pause in the regular season – and eight “placeholders” that represent the to-be-determined Qualifying Round teams that do not advance, thus maintaining previously established odds for the Draft Lottery.

* Acquired in a trade with the San Jose Sharks (.450 P%)
^ The Buffalo Sabres (.406 ROW%) ranked higher than the New Jersey Devils (.348 ROW%) based on regulation/OT win percentage
1st Lottery Draw
* If the winning team of the 1st Lottery Draw is from the #1-7 group, that team wins the right to the first overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft. If the winning team of the 1st Lottery Draw is from the #8-15 group, the right to the first overall pick will be determined in Phase 2 of the 2020 NHL Draft Lottery.
* After the 1st Lottery Draw, the winning team (from either the #1-7 group or the #8-15 group) no longer will be eligible for the 2nd or 3rd Lottery Draws. All number combinations originally assigned to this team will become “Re-Draw Combinations” for the 2nd and 3rd Lottery Draws. The remaining teams’ odds will increase on a proportionate basis for the 2nd Lottery Draw, based on which team wins the 1st Lottery Draw.
2nd Lottery Draw
* If the winning team of the 2nd Lottery Draw is from the #1-7 group, that team wins the right to the second overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft. If the winning team of the 2nd Lottery Draw is from the #8-15 group, the right to the second overall pick will be determined in Phase 2 of the 2020 NHL Draft Lottery.
* After the 2nd Lottery Draw, the winning team (from either the #1-7 group or the #8-15 group) no longer will be eligible for the 3rd Lottery Draw. All number combinations originally assigned to this team will become “Re-Draw Combinations” for the 3rd Lottery Draw. The remaining teams’ odds will increase on a proportionate basis for the 3rd Lottery Draw, based on which team wins the 2nd Lottery Draw.
3rd Lottery Draw
* If the winning team of the 3rd Lottery Draw is from the #1-7 group, that team wins the right to the third overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft. If the winning team of the 3rd Lottery Draw is from the #8-15 group, the right to the third overall pick will be determined in Phase 2 of the 2020 NHL Draft Lottery.
What If All Three Draws Are Won by Teams in the #1-7 Group?
* The winning teams receive the respective top three selections in the 2020 NHL Draft. The remaining four teams in the #1-7 group are assigned 2020 NHL Draft positions 4 through 7, in inverse order of their points percentages at the time of the pause in the regular season. The next eight 2020 NHL Draft positions (8 through 15) are assigned to the eight teams that do not advance from the Qualifying Round, in inverse order of their points percentages at the time of the pause in the regular season. In these circumstances, Phase 2 of the 2020 NHL Draft Lottery will not be necessary.
What If Any of the Three Draws Are Won by Teams in the #8-15 Group?
* The draws for the corresponding selections will be conducted during Phase 2 of the 2020 NHL Draft Lottery among only the eight Qualifying Round teams that fail to advance.
* * * * *
Phase 2 of 2020 NHL Draft Lottery (If Necessary)
* Phase 2 of the 2020 NHL Draft Lottery, if necessary, will be conducted between the Qualifying Round and First Round of the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Exact date and time TBD.
* Phase 2 participants will include all eight teams that do not advance from the Qualifying Round (or the teams that have acquired their first-round picks).
* In each Phase 2 draw, all participants will have the same odds.
* Following each Phase 2 draw, the winning team will be assigned the corresponding top three selection in the 2020 NHL Draft and, if another Phase 2 draw is necessary, that team’s numbered lottery ball will be removed.
* When all Phase 1 and Phase 2 draws are completed and the top three selections in the 2020 NHL Draft have been awarded, the remaining selections in the top 15 will be assigned to the 12 teams that did not win a draw, in inverse order of their points percentages at the time of the pause in the regular season.

I dont think ANY SPORTS will be played This year..fn Coronavirus yea we can forget MLB this year of 2020. NFL will be quickly crippled with any early training camp ourbreaks (ie: Lightning, Phillies). NHL, NBA will be VERY lucky to get started with normal fall camps at this point. and the masses attending games?? Revenue structures? Fk. Unbelieveable times. Never in my life have I felt so removed from hockey. shit, I've taken up the guitar. online lessons available out there are ok. I'll be playing Beatles rifs before NHL starts up again, someday.. |

"You got a slice of pineapple on your creation there, Burnsey? Nice." "No, that's a brick of gouda topping off my burger.." Ha! Both prefer charcoal, Hummm. I bet they both keep paid chiefs in the house most of the time. Probably don't grill themselves all that often, but what kings of banter. As they should...gas (which isn’t really bbq’ing) grilling is for cooking fish, veggies and drinking fruity beers  |

Mine is no where near as fancy as that one. Not worth it for chicken in my opinion. |

Actually my Brother bought two of the big ones. One for his house, one for the Masonic lodge here in town. We busted our asses getting them off the trailer  |

I use wood to smoke meat at least a couple of times a week (smoked a prime rib roast for Fathers day). I also use natural/hardwood briquets, not charcoal, for my day to day bbq’ing. I don’t cook over a campfire type set up except for smores, hot dogs, etc like you mentioned. |
