The Montreal Canadiens are not only hosting the NHL draft in July, they’ll have the No. 1 overall pick. NHLDraftLottery
The projected No. 1 overall pick is Kingston Frontenacs center Shane Wright, who had 32 goals and 94 points in 63 games in the Ontario Hockey League.
Montreal, which had an 18.5% chance of winning, finally managed to pick up a big victory after a season in which the Canadiens were undone by a series of injuries and free-agent losses, which led to the team firing coach Dominique Ducharme and general manager Marc Bergevin. Kent Hughes took over as GM with Martin St. Louis still holding the title of interim coach.
The timing of the lottery win at least lines up with the Canadiens’ lengthy wait to host the draft, scheduled for July 7 and 8. Montreal was originally scheduled to host the event in 2020, but the last two drafts were held remotely because of the coronavirus pandemic.
