Montreal Canadiens: One ball away from having Connor Bedard in the lottery
Last night was the Connor Bedard lottery, who will finally play in Chicago. For the Canadiens, who finished 28th overall, logic was respected and they will have the fifth pick.
However, the scenario could have been different if not for the last ball. The Hawks' winning combination was 4-5-9-13, while the CH's was 4-5-9-11.
The result remains the same, that is, the Habs will select in the fifth round. But imagine if that last ball had been Brendan Gallagher's number! It would be crazy in Montreal.
