DETROIT >> The Red Wings are likely going to feel the sting of being a “mid” hockey team at today’s NHL Draft Lottery.

The Wings finished 21st in the overall standings, or 12th from the bottom of the NHL standings. By draft lottery standards, that’ll likely cost them.

There is a limit on the total number of selections (10) a team participating in the draft lottery can “move up” in the event it wins one of the two lottery draws. And only the top 11 seeds are eligible to receive the first overall draft pick.

So, you guessed it. With the Wings being the 12th seed, they can only hope to miraculously move up to the second overall pick. But even that is a pipe dream, with a 5.1% chance of moving into the No. 2 spot. They have an 85.7% chance to stay at No. 12.

Today’s lottery determines the draft order for the 16 non-playoff teams for the NHL Entry Draft, which will be held June 27-28 in Los Angeles.

The Wings have had no luck in the lottery over the years, including since general manager Steve Yzerman took over in 2019. They’ve yet to ever move up in the lottery. Instead, they’ve either stayed put or dropped. The biggest drop was in 2020, when the Wings had the worst record in the NHL but fell to fourth overall in the draft order. They ended up selecting Lucas Raymond that year, which, actually, has worked out quite well.

But despite the lottery disappointments, the Wings have appeared to fare well with their first-round picks under Yzerman.

Forward Michael Brandsegg-Nygard (2024, 15th overall), forward Nate Danielson (2023, ninth), defenseman Axel Sandin-Pellikka (2023, 17th), forward Marco Kasper (2022, eighth), defenseman Simon Edvinsson (2021, sixth), goaltender Sebastian Cossa (2021, 15th), Raymond (2020, fourth) and defenseman Moritz Seider (2019, sixth) are all either in the NHL or on course to be NHL players in the near future.

There will be a new twist to today’s lottery proceedings. Fans will be able to watch on live television as the lottery balls are drawn at NHL Network’s studio in Secaucus, New Jersey.

This will be the first time in the 30-year history of the draft lottery that the drawing will be shown live and in-studio.

The San Jose Sharks, who won last year’s lottery and picked Macklin Celebrini first overall, again have the best odds (25.5%) to win Monday’s lottery after recording the NHL’s worst record.

If there is a shred of good news for the Wings, it’s that this year’s draft isn’t considered as strong at the top. There isn’t a consensus top pick, and scouts don’t necessarily view anyone as a generational talent.

Defenseman Matthew Schaefer and forwards Michael Misa and Anton Frondell are generally considered to be the top picks, by NHL Central Scouting.
