You’re A Wizard, Taylor

The world is full of strange luck but there are some coincidences that are down right crazy. One of the crazier ones is Taylor Hall and his draft lottery luck.

Taylor Hall of the New Jersey Devils has a crazy draft streak going. In his 9 seasons in the NHL, the team Hall has played for has gotten the 1st overall draft pick 6 times, including his draft year.

The projected first overall draft pick is Jack Hughes who Hall trains with in the summers. The actual draft takes place on June 21st in Vancouver.
