## Resource

The New York Rangers missed out on the top spot in the 2026 NHL Draft Lottery, settling for the fifth overall pick. Despite having the third-best odds, they were upstaged by the Toronto Maple Leafs and San Jose Sharks. The Islanders, with their 2.5% odds, remain at twelfth, while the Devils stay at thirteenth. Islanders defenseman Matthew Schaefer, drafted last year from tenth odds, is making waves as a Calder Trophy finalist, showcasing his impressive rookie season.
