Carolina Hurricanes Prospects: The Lot of the 2017 NHL Draft Lottery

The Carolina Hurricanes have a 3.2% chance of winning the draft lottery. Chances are slim, but anything can happen. More than likely a team like Colorado, Arizona, or Vegas will vie for the top pick. But who is up for grabs?

Nolan Patrick

On almost every draft list from the beginning of the year till now, Nolan Patrick has been the consensus number one prospect. It is impressive, especially considering the 18 year old was out with injury for a large part of the season. He only played 33 WHL games this season and didn’t play at the World Junior Championship.
