Here are the worst and best case scenarios for the Flyers at the Draft Lottery

With one game to go this season (tomorrow against the Ottawa Senators at Wells Fargo Center), the attention will turn to what Chuck Fletcher will do during the offseason to improve his team.

One of the most important deadline this summer will be the Draft in Montreal in the beginning of July.

As a reminder, if the season ended today, the Flyers would have the 4th best odds to select first. But, it's clearly not the most likely scenario for the Flyers.

So, what are the best and worst case scenario ahead of the Draft Lottery on May 10th?


As said earlier, the Flyers are the 4th worst team in the league. If they finish 29th overall, the team will select 6th overall in the worst case scenario - and it would also be not possible for them to select 3rd. However, if the Orange and Black find a way to finish 30th, the worst place they could select will be 5th. They would also have a 11.5% chance to select first or second.

Here's a video that explains extremely well the situation.
