Draft Lottery Held-See Draft Order Below

[Commissioner]

The BOD used the same percentage probability chart that the NHL uses to determine who gets the first pick in the 2004 NsHL Entry Draft.

In other words, Nashville had a 25% chance of getting the first pick.

That draft was held yesterday evening at our weekly Board of Director Meeting. The 2004 Entry Draft Order will be as follows:

1st Pick.........Montreal Canadiens
2nd Pick........Nashville Predators
3rd Pick.........Pittsburgh Penguins
4th Pick.........Chicago Blackhawks
5th Pick.........New York Rangers
6th Pick.........Phoenix Coyotes
7th Pick.........Minnesota Wild
8th Pick.........Carolina Hurricanes
9th Pick.........Columbus BlueJackets
10th Pick.......Edmonton Oilers
11th Pick.......Buffalo Sabres
12th Pick.......Florida Panthers
13th Pick.......Dallas Stars
14th Pick.......Washington Capitals
---------------------------------

Congratulations to the Montreal Canadiens!

You may now scout accordingly.
