We now know when the Canadiens' draft fate will be confirmed

The majority of Montreal Canadiens fans are eagerly awaiting it, and we just received information regarding the NHL draft lottery, which will determine the team that will have the opportunity to pick the promising Macklin Celebrini.

The date of this lottery has not yet been made official, but it will definitely take place on either May 6 or May 7.


The exact timing will be determined based on the progress of the first round of the playoffs, should there be any Game 7 matches in certain matchups.


For those wishing to watch the lottery live, this will be a date to add to your calendar.

It should be noted that the Canadiens have an 8.5% chance of winning the first pick, and an 8.6% chance of moving up to the second overall spot.

We must also not forget that there is a possibility that Kent Hughes could see his pick fall back by up to two positions, in the event that one or more teams win the first two selections, which would be the worst possible scenario for the Tricolore.

We are very excited to find out the outcome of this lottery that will be decisive for the organization.
