For the first time since the NHL paused their season, you can watch some actual live NHL content tonight. While the draft lottery isn’t the most exciting event on the NHL’s annual calendar, it at least is an event.
If you haven’t been following, the league implemented a multi-stage draft lottery that begins tonight. The lottery will ultimately include the seven teams whose seasons are already over plus the eight teams who get eliminated in the play-in round that is targeted to begin at the end of July or beginning of August.
So tonight’s lottery is among seven known teams and eight unknown teams.
