The ping pong balls are in and not much has changed for the Colorado Avalanche. Heading into the night the Colorado Avalanche had an 11.5% chance of jumping into the top three selections, a 64% chance of staying at 10th overall, and a 24.42% chance of falling. With lottery victories for the Toronto Maple Leafs (1st), the Winnipeg Jets (2nd), and the Columbus Blue Jackets (3rd) the Avalanche hold onto the their original draft position and barring a trade, will select 10th overall in June.
2 months out it’s difficult to predict who the Avalanche might select with the 10th overall pick, as this draft is particularly volatile after the top 6 selections.
