The Ducks went into the lottery with the best odds to win (25.5%), but the Chicago Blackhawks, who had the third-highest odds (11.5%), win the right to select generational talent Connor Bedard.
| UPDATED:The Ducks just had the worst season in franchise history – and the worst overall in the NHL this past season – and the bad news continued on Monday.
The Blackhawks, who had the third-highest odds of winning it at 11.5%, will almost certainly select Regina Pats center Connor Bedard, considered the most promising junior prospect since Connor McDavid. The consolation prize is expected to be Canadian forward Adam Fantilli, of the University of Michigan, who has star upside as well.
They’ll probably get somebody who will play in the NHL for a long time. but players like Bedard are called generational for a reason. They don’t come along every year.
