How to use the NHL wheel

  1. Decide who is in play

    All 32 teams start on the wheel. Tap any one to drop it out — it greys out and the wheel redraws straight away, so what you see is always what you are actually spinning. All, None and Reset above the list are shortcuts.

  2. Spin it

    Four ways, all identical: the big button, the hub in the middle of the wheel, the space bar, or Spin again on the result. In a hurry? Instant pick skips the animation — the odds are exactly the same either way.

  4. Need an order, not one answer?

    Switch on Remove team after it is picked. Each winner leaves the wheel as it is drawn, so spinning repeatedly gives you a full running order with no repeats — what you want for a draft, a bracket or handing out sides.

How the NHL is laid out on the wheel

The NHL runs sixteen clubs in each conference, split into two divisions of eight. The East holds the Atlantic (Bruins, Sabres, Red Wings, Panthers, Canadiens, Senators, Lightning, Maple Leafs) and Metropolitan (Hurricanes, Blue Jackets, Devils, Islanders, Rangers, Flyers, Penguins, Capitals). The West holds the Central (Blackhawks, Avalanche, Stars, Wild, Predators, Blues, Mammoth, Jets) and Pacific (Ducks, Flames, Oilers, Kings, Sharks, Kraken, Canucks, Golden Knights). Every wedge carries the club’s primary color and crest.

Are the picks really random?

Yes. Every spin pulls a value from your browser’s cryptographic random number generator and rejects any value that would bias the outcome, so all 32 teams — or however many you left on the wheel — have exactly the same chance. The winner is chosen before the wheel starts turning; the animation simply drives to it. Nothing is weighted and no result is sent to a server.
