The New Jersey Devils hold the fourth slot in the lottery with the same odds as the expansion Seattle Kraken, who were given the third seed. The Devils and Kraken have a 10.3 percent chance of winning the lottery.
The New York Rangers hold the 16th and final spot in the lottery. They have a one percent chance of winning the lottery.
