Summary

The NHL Draft lottery is over, and no, the Detroit Red Wings didn't land a spot to pick Connor Bedard, Adam Fantilli, Matvei Michkov, Will Smith, or Leo Carlsson (probably). BUT, they didn't move down.

Tune in as we discuss the NHL Draft Lottery results, including thoughts on the Chicago Blackhawks and whether they "deserved" the 1st overall pick, what Steve Yzerman & the Red Wings have to do now that they have never received the lottery luck they desperately wanted, feelings on the available pool of players, & more (4:20).

We're joined by Max Bultman to further discuss the NHL Draft class, give overall thoughts on the players available, what's next in the "Yzerplan", how the likes of Larkin, Seider, Raymond, Veleno, & others have to lead an improved Hockeytown, & plenty more (17:30).

Next, we go over some of the potential prospects at picks 9 & 17, including Ryan Leonard, Dalibor Dvorsky, Oliver Moore, Zach Benson, Gabe Perreault, Nate Danielson, Colby Barlow, & others. Also, whether a trade from either pick is possible & other potential strategies (49:50).

Finally, some NHL & Red Wings news (Walman out of the IIHF World Championships, Carter Mazur shining), plus some podcast updates (1:06:50) before we take your questions during Overtime (1:09:25) - enjoy!

0:13.4	You see, we fooled ourselves by saying that we know 9th overall is going to be the outcome and not to get our hopes up in that we're done praying for the dream and if it happens great and if it doesn't who cares the Red Wings knew they're most likely going to draft ninth overall.
0:34.0	And the hockey gods looked at that and said, well, we can't have them brace and do away with the expected misery.
0:42.0	We have to find a way to make this an even harder kick in the
0:44.4	pants. And then they gave Connor Bedard to the Chicago Blackhawks and just the entire, it was proof that there's
0:50.6	nothing good or just in this world and every Red Wings fan who had
0:55.9	come to terms with ninth overall then had to look up at that and go okay yeah now

1:29.0	We don't want to talk about what came out of inside of you
1:32.0	before this episode to air out the studio.
1:34.8	It made me Miss Brad's dogs when the old days when we used to record in your kitchen
1:39.7	they used to gas us out. Nice little throwback from you, Evan.
1:43.0	Yeah. Welcome to the Wained Wheel podcast. This is our first post lottery episode where we unfortunately
