I had a crazy week with HQ asking for a financial forecast for 21/22 in 10 days where we normally do it over 45-60 days at the end of the year. I have a question out to the hockey team on a ruling of the Edmonton/Chicago/Calgary question. Hopefully will post the winner shortly.

Sorry to hear it was a tough week, completely understandable that you were busy taking care of priorities.

Regarding the ruling on the draft picks. Since Edmonton traded the pick to SJ shouldn't the correct answer to that question be
Who will draft in the following positions, Edmonton, Chicago or Calgary? (Note that Edmonton has the option to send pick 76 to Calgary this year, or a similar pick next year. If they send the 76th pick this year to Calgary it will actually go to Chicago to finalize the Gustafsson trade. If not, Chicago receives the 81st pick)
Pick 76 - None
Pick 81 - Chicago
