LA Kings have 13.5 Percent Chance to Get No. 1 Pick at NHL Draft Lottery

The National Hockey League announced today the odds for the 2019 NHL Draft Lottery participants following the conclusion of the 2018-19 regular season.
Currently in the No. 2 spot, the LA Kings have a 13.5 percent chance of moving up to the top spot in the draft and can fall no lower than the No. 5 pick.
The 2019 NHL Draft Lottery - which will be held Tuesday, April 9, in Toronto, will consist of three drawings: the 1st Lottery Draw will determine the club selecting first overall, the 2nd Lottery Draw will determine the club selecting second overall and the 3rd Lottery Draw will determine the club selecting third overall.
The results of the Draft Lottery will be revealed live by NBCSN during a one-hour show beginning at 5 p.m.
The allocation of odds for the 1st Lottery Draw of the 2019 NHL Draft Lottery is as follows:

The 15 clubs that did not qualify for the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs - or the clubs that have acquired the first-round picks of those non-playoff clubs - will participate in the 2019 NHL Draft Lottery.
The odds for the remaining clubs will increase on a proportionate basis for the 2nd Lottery Draw, based on which club wins the 1st Lottery Draw, and again for the 3rd Lottery Draw, based on which club wins the 2nd Lottery Draw.
The 12 clubs not selected in the 2019 NHL Draft Lottery will be assigned 2019 NHL Draft selections 4 through 15, in inverse order of regular-season points.
The 2019 NHL Draft will take place at Rogers Arena in Vancouver.
The first round will be held Friday, June 21.
Rounds 2-7 will take place Saturday, June 22.
