Draft Lottery 6/49!

The NHL Draft lottery is set to be televised on Monday April 7th. TSN will have all the goodies with the pre-lottery Macguire's Monsters and Fantasy Playoff special.

Scotiabank NHL Draft Lottery Special – April 7 at 8 p.m. ET
Live on TSN, TSN.ca, NHL Network, Versus, NHL.com
James Duthie hosts the live, 30-minute event from the TSN Studios, marking the second time in the 13-year history of the conventional lottery the event will be televised, and the first time since 2005. Billed as the 'Stamkos Sweepstakes', the TSN original production features NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly, who will reveal the lottery results in reverse order, and representatives from each of the five teams who could win the No. 1 pick. Joining the show via satellite will be Steven Stamkos, the highly-touted Sarnia Sting centre and World Junior Championship gold medal winner. A live eye at the NHL's New York headquarters will capture the moment before the ping pong balls drop to determine the lottery winner. Hockey Insider Bob McKenzie will present his ranking of the Top 10 players eligible for the Draft while Mike Milbury will provide analysis before and after the lottery.

Too bad the pre-lottery TSN specials are on Monday. I've got a playoff pool draft on Sunday night. I'll have to do my homework and see how my picks compare to the TSN panel.
