On Tuesday night the NHL will host its Draft Lottery Show at 6 PM CT, and the Winnipeg Jets, who are currently slated to select seventh overall, will see where they ultimately end up in the draft order.
As things stand prior to the lottery, here is the NHL draft order:
In addition to simulating the lottery, the TSN NHL Draft Simulator provides probabilities for where each team could ultimately select.
The Jets most likely outcome is remaining at seventh overall (44.4 per cent), followed by a drop to eighth (36.5 per cent). The odds of moving into the top three are slim, including 6.5 per cent for first overall, 6.7 per cent for second and 0.2 per cent for third, while there is also a 5.6 per cent chance of slipping to ninth.
Winnipeg has experienced lottery movement before, holding the sixth spot 10 years ago before moving up to second overall where they selected Patrik Laine.
