How this week could impact the Penguins’ draft standing

The Penguins could potentially receive two top-ten picks in the 2025 NHL Draft.

Whether that happens depends on both how the Penguins and the New York Rangers do over this final week of the regular season.

A few wins from Seattle Kraken, Philadelphia Flyers, Buffalo Sabres and Anaheim Ducks would meanwhile give the Pens a better shot at moving up to the first or second overall pick in the May draft lottery.

As of Tuesday, the San Jose Sharks, Chicago Blackhawks and Nashville Predators have already clinched the top three spots heading into the draft lottery, according to Tankathon.
