Canadiens end up with No. 5 overall pick at NHL Draft Lottery

Canadiens general manager Kent Hughes is not a very superstitious man. In the end, the Canadiens ended up with the No. 5 overall pick for this year's draft after finishing with the fifth-worst record in the overall NHL standings for the second straight year. The Canadiens also ended up with the No. 5 pick last year and used it to select defenceman David Reinbacher.
