NHL draft lottery 2021: Time, the odds for each team, top prospects and more
The 2021 NHL draft lottery is here, and it could bring really good news to the newest franchise in the league, the Seattle Kraken.
The Kraken have the third-best lottery odds to get the No. 1 overall pick and a chance to perhaps select Michigan defenseman Owen Power — who some think has the talent to be a top selection, or Swedish Hockey League star William Eklund.
A reminder: the lottery determines who gets No. 1 and 2 overall, and the rest of the order will be determined by the inverse order in the standings.
But first, we have to see how the ping pong balls fall — remember last year’s drama? — at 7 p.m. ET on NBCSN.
So here are the odds for each of the non-playoff teams ahead of Wednesday night’s lottery.
