The results of the NHL's entry draft lottery, and who gets the No. 1 overall pick, will be carried exclusively on The Sports Network in a special half-hour show on Friday at 4 p.m. (EST).

The Crosby Show

The "Next One" ??? I guess the only thing for sure is he will go #1 in the Entry Draft.

But like the NBA, only the results of the draw will be shown. The actual drawing will take place away from the cameras. The original plan had been to hold the entire lottery behind closed doors during Friday's board of governors meeting, with commissioner Gary Bettman subsequently announcing the results at a news conference.

Now hockey fans will get to see how it unfolds. The order of the draft will be unveiled, starting with the 30th pick and ending with the prized first.

I think it would be funny if Crosby didn't go first! That happened a few years back and the guy who everyone said would be #1 ended up #2 or #3 and had a really sour look on his face.
