Following the Arizona Coyotes' win yesterday over the Dallas Stars, the Habs will officially finish 32nd in the NHL.
So, in short, they will have at least one top-3 pick in the next draft, which will be held in Montreal.
The percentages break down as follows: the Habs have a 25% chance of being drafted first overall, an 18.8% chance of being drafted second overall and a 55.7% chance of being drafted third overall.
In short, Jeff Gorton and Kent Hughes are sure to have an excellent young prospect on their team next season.
