Chicago Blackhawks win NHL draft lottery, and right to select Connor Bedard
The Chicago Blackhawks have won the NHL draft lottery and the right to select Connor Bedard with the first pick, parlaying one of their worst seasons in decades into a potentially franchise-altering player.
Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly unveiled a placard featuring the Blackhawks logo Monday night, signifying they had gotten the No. 1 pick. Chicago had the third-highest odds of winning the lottery at 11.5 per cent, behind Anaheim’s 25.5 per cent and Columbus’ 13.5 per cent. But Bedard has been the presumptive top pick in the 2023 draft for several years, considered the best prospect available since Connor McDavid eight years ago and making this lottery nearly as anticipated as that or the drawing in 2005 for Sidney Crosby.
