Red Wings Have History on Their Side with 15th Pick in 2024 NHL Draft

With the NHL Draft Lottery taking place on May 7, the Detroit Red Wings (and the entire league, for that matter) find themselves right where the odds had them at pick number 15 for the 2024 Draft. While the Red Wings have picked at that slot a few times over the last 10 drafts (Dylan Larkin in 2014, Sebastian Cossa in 2021), there have also been a number of instances in the past that should help give fans some hope and excitement that the team could end up getting a player who will become a big piece of the future. Being ranked third amongst North American skaters in the NHL Central Scouting's final rankings, Cole Caufield seemingly fell right into the Montreal Canadiens' lap in the 2019 Draft at pick 15.
