That's very true. Myself I'd probably only keep the 2nd rounder given how my minors always seems to be full anyways.This suggestion wasn't so much about the Supp Draft I think, as it was to help the bottom teams gain a better prospect if they keep their 1st Round Picks. I mean, it comes down to the Supp Draft with our suggestions, but helping the lower teams have an "easier" time to rebuild by adding a top-valued prospect was the main goal.
These are the changes that I would personally like to see.1. Change it so teams can keep up to 2 players from their teams actual rookie draft (except 1st rounders) instead of the current 3.2. 1st Round players are unproctected and need to be selected in the supplemental draft3. Add a 4th round to the supplemental draft.4. Draft lottery used to select the pick order of 1st-5th picks in the draft to prevent tanking and add some more excitement to the draft5. Increase minor league roster size to 15 to allow more time for prospects to develop
I agree with rob that most teams would keep their 2nd round pick and that is all (Unless they don't have a full minors, don't have any supplemental picks or their team took a goalie in the 3rd-5th round).I'm not against having the 1st rounders unprotected and available in the draft. I would just like to see a 4th round added to the draft in this case so that the same number of new prospects can be acquired each year by teams. I think this would be a better way to spread out the talent in the draft to the teams that really need and also still allow teams to acquire the same amount of prospects.

How do we fairly and transparently implement a draft lottery? I'm on board with all of them, I just want to hear thoughts on the above.
I would be 100% on board with all 5 of these suggestions.Although I already know Rob hates #5...haha
