Tonight at 7:00 p.m. CST, you will be able to watch the NHL Draft Lottery on NBC (or SportsNet or whatever in Canada).
Right now, the Dallas Stars are probably going to be picking 9th overall. That’s great! Recent picks in that spot include Jacob Trouba, Dougie Hamilton, Logan Couture, and Michael Granlund! Less recent 9th picks include James Patrick and Brent Krahn, but never mind those.
Of course, “probably” is a meaningful term, as the lottery will determine the top three picks, potentially bumping teams down a notch. And with the Vegas Golden Knights determined to 1) Stick to that ridiculous moniker, and 2) Make a go of it as a hockey team, who knows how things will shake out?
