It’s become an annual tradition in Edmonton. The season ends in April – yes, yes, yes. We know that part. But during the 1st round of the playoffs, it’s the draft lottery! That one day per year that Oiler fans can finally figure out where in the lottery we’re drafting and begin the speculation on who would be the best fit. The results are in, and they are positive for the Oilers!
Going into the draft lottery, the odds of getting the #1 pick were as follows:
- Buffalo Sabres – 20%
- Arizona Coyotes – 13.
