Second Draft Lottery FAQ

The NHL, in an attempt to give us emotional whiplash, has scheduled the second draft lottery for tonight.

The actual lottery will be held in the NHL’s studio in New Jersey, and will be hosted by Jamie Hersch of NHL Network. The broadcast starts at 6:00 p.m., and the exact time of the lottery itself is “sometime after that”. The show will be aired on NBCSN, NHL Network and Sportsnet/TVA.

There will be an interview with Alexis Lafreniere as part of the broadcast.

The first draft lottery was held in June, and the results were:

1. TBD*
2. Los Angeles Kings
3. Ottawa Senators (from SJS)

All of those TBDs will be determined by the second lottery.
