Odd Scene at the Draft Lottery Puts Gary Bettman in a Confusing Position
The results of the draft lottery are in, but nobody is focused on that anymore. A mysterious mishap has stolen the spotlight.
The Draft Lottery is Pre-Recorded!
When the commercial break between the fourth and third overall picks was about to start, everybody's worst fears were confirmed.
Despite the fact that Bill Daly hadn't even turned over the plaque saying the Columbus Blue Jackets were picking third overall, Kevin Weekes tweeted it out.
This unequivocally proved that the lottery is pre-recorded, and has rightfully raised questions around if the lottery is rigged.
While trust in Gary Bettman has never been high, it certainly took a hit tonight.
