Again, one week max to vote.
Here are the details of the proposed lottery:
The selection order for the first eight (8) choices of the first round of the 2013 Draft will be determined by lottery.
Teams will be awarded entries in the lottery as follows: 19th place – 10 entries 18th place – 7 entries 17th place – 6 entries 16th place – 5 entries 15th place – 4 entries 14th place – 3 entries 13th place – 2 entries
The expansion franchise beginning play in the 2013-14 season will have ten entries, and cannot pick lower than third. There are no other restrictions on how far up or down a team can move in the lottery.
The 47 entries will be mixed up, and a single entry selected. This team will choose first.
A second entry will then be chosen. If the entry belongs to the team picking first, it will be discarded, and another entry chosen. This team will pick second.
If the expansion franchise has not been drawn in either the first or second position, they will automatically be awarded the third position. If not, the lottery will continue, drawing entries until a team is chosen who has not yet been drawn.
Selection will continue until the seventh pick is filled. There will be one lottery team remaining, and they will automatically chose eighth.
The twelve playoff teams will chose in reverse order of finish, occupying picks 9 through 20.
In the second and subsequent rounds, all teams will pick in reverse order of finish, with the expansion franchise having the second pick of each round.
The lottery will be conducted by the commissioner, and recorded for verification purposes.

I'm torn on this one. I like the idea of a lottery but I just think fewer teams should be in with a chance of first overall - say bottom 3 only.
So I kinda fall between the two.

33 of 47 balls belong to either the bottom three, or the expansion club. It's statistically improbable that the 13th place team will win the draw

The expansion team is messing up my choice........I would pick one way with expansion, and the other choice without it. if there is no lottery, would the draft just go reverse order all the way? where would the expansion team pick in the 1st round?

If lottery motion is defeated, the expansion club will pick second in the first round, just as it will in all subsequent rounds

I like the idea of all non-playoff teams getting a shot

Two teams left, but their votes won't change the result. 14 of the 17 GMs who have registered a vote have voted in favour of the lottery as proposed. The draft lottery will be in effect for the 2013 draft.

I don't think 13-15th should get less ballots/balls... Although the difference is pretty small...
