Winnipeg Jets set to draft 14th overall at the 2022 NHL Draft

Coming into tonight’s Draft Lottery the Jets chances were as follows:

4th overall: 3.2 percent
14th overall: 94.8 percent
15th overall: 2.1 percent

This will be the first time the Jets have ever drafted 14th overall.

Draft positions:

2011 – 7th
2012 – 9th
2013 – 13th
2014 – 9th
2015 – 17th & 25th
2016 – 2nd
2017 – 24th
2018 – No pick
2019 – 20th
2020 – 10th
2021 – 18th (technically 17th since Coyotes lost their 1st rounder).

Winnipeg currently have seven picks for this draft including a 1st, 2nd x 2, 3rd, 4th and a 7th. Worth noting that 2nd could become a 1st if the Rangers comeback in their series with the Penguins. And the other 2nd the Jets have the option to take it or the Rangers 2023 2nd.
