Columbus Blue Jackets own fourth pick in June draft, San Jose Sharks win NHL draft lottery

According to the the NHL's draft lottery results released Tuesday in Secaucus, New Jersey, that's where the Blue Jackets will pick in this year's NHL draft ― which is set for late June at Sphere in Las Vegas. Despite 16 teams holding 1,000 different four-number combinations to determine the first two picks, the draft order didn't have a single team move up or down from the league's reverse standings to conclude the regular season. The San Jose Sharks pick first and will be expected to select Boston University center Macklin Celebrini, a 17-year old winner of the Hobey Baker Award as college hockey's top player. "We've just got to get to work," Blue Jackets president of hockey operations/interim general manager John Davidson said.
