I must be losing my mind....I can't find it when I scan ahead to Saturday. I've looked at every channel and looked through each time slot.

Everywhere else except for CBC says 8:00 ET (7pm CT).
So I'm assuming on CBC...

6-7pm CST - George Stroumboulopoulos talking about the draft lottery.
7-715 CST - Actual draft lottery
7:20 CST - Delayed game start.

My NHL App says 7:00 CT for the hockey game. Sportsnet has also been running trailers for the draft lottery with Sinatra music that says 7:00 ET

I don't think I'm going to watch, Maybe, depending on what time i get back from the LAKE tomorrow but, honestly, I don't think watching these things live are worth it, I remember watching last year's draft lotto live and i get it's a different format but i felt a little underwhelmed and quite frankly, bored while watching it. Gave me kind of a headache. Lots of talk, not much else. Maybe it would be better with the JETS in it, but... doubt it. It's still just a whole lot of talk with a whole lot of nothing else. I hope the Jets win a top 3 spot, that would be fantastic... but... I'm not really holding my breath.

Imagine if the Jets win first overall pick it will be the only time since picking Hawerchuk in 1981. This will be Portage and Main party time significance

Good. Winnipeg is well-represented there. Maybe Rosemary Barton and Andrew Coyne can get the fix in for us.

Even then, People going to Portage and Main over winning a draft lotto seems pretty ridiculous actually. For all we know, Jets are one of the teams who have Laine ranked higher.

I think that's unlikely. Cheveldayoff's answer to the question of what he'd do if they won the lottery was basically "cartwheels", from which I inferred that they have one player head and shoulders above the others. Those with Laine ahead have him so by an inch.
