Around The NHL

**Toronto Hockey Now:** In the most hilarious news of the day, the Toronto Maple Leafs won the draft lottery. They jumped from No. 5 to No. 1 and will get the first-overall draft pick for the first time in a decade. What a wild week its been for the Leafs organization. San Jose Hockey Now: The Sharks also won the draft lottery for the No. 2 pick in this year’s draft. That means another massive piece is coming to San Jose, to join Macklin Celebrini, Will Smith, Michael Misa, and Sam Dickinson. **Montreal Hockey Now**: The Canadiens and Sabres series finally starts tonight. Click here for a series preview. **Boston Hockey Now:** The Maple Leafs’ first-round pick was traded, with conditions, to the Boston Bruins in the Brandon Carlo deal last year. Since the Leafs are keeping their pick, the Bruins will now get an unprotected 2027 first-round pick from the Leafs. **Forever Blueshirts:** The Leafs and Sharks both jumping the queue means other teams will fall. The Rangers go from No. 3 to No. 5. The biggest loser of the day is the Vancouver Canucks, who fell from No. 1 to No. 3. **Dallas Hockey Now:** Five trade destinations for Jason Robertson this summer that actually make sense. **Pittsburgh Hockey Now:** An overall assessment of the Penguins’ season.
