The Red Wings will pick 8th in 2022 NHL Draft

The Detroit Red Wings landed right where they were supposed to in the 2022 NHL Draft Lottery. The Wings had the best chance (54.4%) to draw the 8th pick, and that’s what they got.

The Wings had a slim chance of landing the 1st pick, only about 6%. So, like.. What were we really expecting, right?

Here are the first 16 picks in the 2022 NHL Draft:

  1. Detroit Red Wings
  2. Columbus Blue Jackets
  3. Buffalo Sabres (via Vegas)

Ah, shoot.
