While the Nashville Predators can technically win Monday's NHL Draft Lotter, they can't move up to the number one spot, meaning they'll miss out on the chance to draft Connor Bedard.

So with that in mind, who SHOULD Preds fans want to see land the generational talent at the 2023 NHL Draft in Nashville?

On today's episode, Nick and Ann look at all 11 teams who can win the number one spot in the draft lottery, and rate how excited we'd be if each team managed to land Bedard. We debate the "fun-ness" factor for teams like the Anaheim Ducks or Washington Capitals, the "they deserve it" factor for the Arizona Coyotes and Columbus Blue Jackets, and we break down the big reason why the Chicago Blackhawks absolutely DO NOT deserve some lottery luck. Plus, Nick and Ann reveal the one team where they'd LOVE to see Bedard land.
