Maybe I'm a little crazy. Maybe.

So with Tuesday's 2019 NHL draft lottery upon us, I decided to do my own analysis, simulating the results 100 times.

Thanks to the beckoning of Tankathon.com, it didn't take long.

The lottery decides the first 15 picks of the NHL draft. This year's top prize is 17-year-old Jack Hughes, younger brother of Vancouver's Quinn Hughes (Michigan). Jack Hughes, who plays for the Plymouth-based USA Hockey National Team Development Program in suburban Detroit, is regarded as a 'generational' talent. Finland forward Kaapo Kakko is the No. 2 prospect.

The Detroit Red Wings have the fourth-best odds of the 15 lottery teams, with a 9.5% chance to win the No. 1 pick, and a 28.8% chance to move into the top 3. The Red Wings selected Filip Zadina at six last year.

The NHL will draw for the first pick, then repeat the process for picks two and three. After that, teams will be ordered in the inverse of regular-season points, meaning the Red Wings can drop no lower than three spots to No. 7.

The NHL draft is June 21-22 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver.

Here are the Free Press' scientific results over 100 lottery simulations.

How about that, Red Wings fans!

Colorado, which earned a playoff berth this season, holds Ottawa's pick from the Matt Duchene trade, and has the best odds at winning the lottery at 18.5%.

For the #MathIsHard crowd, yes, that adds up to 100.

The Wings won the lottery on simulations: 6, 8, 17, 25, 30, 36, 50, 53, 57, 64, 75, 79, 89, 90, 94.

In our experiment, the Wings overperformed their odds at winning the No. 1 pick. But as expected, they landed most often at No. 6 and No. 5.

What's it all mean? Nothing, of course.

But it sure was fun!

The drama begins at 8 p.m. (more info here).
