The New Jersey Devils were the big winners of Saturday's NHL Draft Lottery moving up from No. 5 to earn the top selection in June's NHL Draft, much to the surprise of general manager Ray Shero. It marks the third time in draft lottery history that a team has moved from the fifth spot to No. For the first time the Vegas Golden Knights were participants in the NHL Draft Lottery. Vegas will have the sixth overall selection while Arizona will pick seventh at the 2017 NHL Draft, which will be held at Chicago's United Center June 23 and 24th.
