The Red Wings will pick 4th in the upcoming draft, after Detroit dropped in the draft lottery Friday. Detroit's GM Steve Yzerman talks with the media The Detroit News

The team failed to win Friday’s NHL Draft Lottery, and will wind up pickingfourth whenever the actual NHL Entry Draft will be held (probably in October).
But let the conspiracy theories begin, as a team who will be playing in the qualifying round in July/August will be picking first overall.
