The 2021 NHL Draft Lottery goes Wednesday at 7 pm ET with several fresh wrinkles.
These include:
The addition of the expansion Seattle Kraken. For $600 million, the Kraken receive the third-best odds 10.3 %, equal to the New Jersey Devils – guaranteeing the first-year no worse than a fifth overall Entry Draft selection.

If the Arizona Coyotes gain the first overall pick, it’ll result in a forfeiture due to sanctions enforced by the NHL for multiple NHL Combine testing violations. A re-draw will take place.
Only two draws will be completed unless the Coyotes win the first as noted. No team can fall more than two spots, a change from three in past years.
With assistance from the acclaimed Draft Lottery Simulator website, Tankathon presented lottery odds along with the most common position each of the 16 eligible teams may potentially select.

While the 2021 Entry Draft slated to be star-studded, the majority of amateur scouts consider the First Round to be filled with many future NHLers – with University of Michigan defenseman Owen Power ranked no.1.
For the purposes of not playing favourites, the NHL’s Central Scouting Bureau divides Draft Prospects in groups of players performing North American and Internationally.
