The winner of the NHL draft lottery should have the easiest decision on draft night.
Canadian left winger Alexis Lafreniere is widely regarded as the top prospect in the draft class, and it would be a major surprise to see him fall out of the top position.
The Detroit Red Wings currently hold the worst record in the NHL, which in turn comes with an 18.5 percent chance to land the No. 1 overall pick.
In most years, that would be the largest odds of any team, but the Ottawa Senators' possession of the San Jose Sharks' first-round selection gives them a 25 percent chance to win the lottery from the second- and third-worst marks in the NHL.
