## Resource

Tuesday's episode begins with a recap of the Chicago Blackhawks finish to the 2025-26 regular season, which resulted in the franchise securing a top-four selection in the 2026 NHL Draft. Host Jack Bushman breaks down why a nightmarish finish to the year isn't the worst-case scenario and then previews the 2026 NHL Draft Lottery, where the Blackhawks have a 13.5% chance of claiming the top overall pick. Bushman also discusses who GM Kyle Davidson would likely draft with each selection. The episode concludes with an update on the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs, with Round Two getting underway over the weekend.
