Tonight, the 2025 NHL Draft Lottery is going to take place, and the Boston Bruins are going to need some luck if they want to move up in the draft or win the lottery.

To say the Bruins had a disappointing season is an understatement, they finished with a 33-39-10 record, and missed the playoffs for the first time in eight years. The only bright side of the season is that they now have a chance at a top five pick in the Draft Lottery.

Bruins Odds To Win The Draft Lottery

The Bruins have a 0% chance at landing the fourth overall pick, but they have a slight chance at winning either the first or second overall pick, and have decent odds of drafting inside the top seven.

According to Tankathon, here are the Bruins odds:

1st overall: 8.5 percent 2nd overall: 8.6 percent 3rd overall: 0.3 percent 4th overall: 0 percent 5th overall: 24.5 percent 6th overall: 44.0 percent 7th overall: 14.2 percent

When is the draft lottery?

The Draft Lottery will take place on Monday, May 5th, and it will be the first time in the 30-year history that it will be drawn live from the NHL Network offices in Secaucus, New Jersey.

Once the broadcast starts, the first pick revealed is going to be the first overall pick, and after that it will be revealed in numerical order up until number 16.

When's The NHL Draft?

Los Angeles will be hosting the 2025 NHL Entry Draft, and it is going to take place on June 27th and 28th at the Peacock Theater.

Matthew Schaefer is the top prospect of this years draft. He is a 6-foot-2, 183-pound left shot defenseman who has widely been projected as the No. 1 pick in this years draft.
