It's finally confirmed for the Macklin Celebrini lottery and the Habs
While the Canadiens players are on the golf course, the focus is on the postseason playoffs, but also on the upcoming draft.
The pleasure of Canadiens fans will come in June when their team will select among the top 7 available players. Additionally, Kent Hughes remains active at this time of year in the trade market.
Speaking of the draft, we finally have a precise date for the Macklin Celebrini lottery. It will take place on May 7th.
We are eagerly awaiting to see who will be chosen by the Canadiens in this amateur draft. Kent Hughes will have two first-round picks, but if we go by last year, the 2nd pick (Winnipeg) could be traded.
Here are the Canadiens' chances:
8.5% chance of winning the 1st overall pick and Macklin Celebrini
17% chance of picking top-2 (8.6% chance of winning the 2nd overall pick)
0.3% chance of winning the 3rd overall pick
24.5% chance of obtaining the 5th overall pick
44% chance of obtaining the 6th overall pick
And finally, 14.2% chance of obtaining the 7th overall pick
It's a familiar situation as the Canadiens finished in the same position last year, 28th in the NHL.
