Attentive observers have noticed, but there was a really strange scene during the last few minutes of the 2023 National Hockey League lottery.
Host Kevin Weekes outright announced that the Columbus Blue Jackets had lost the lottery, even before it was revealed by Bill Daly.
A bizarre scene that's making the rounds on the internet.
"Kevin Weekes said Columbus got the 3rd pick and Daly hadn't even flipped or shown the card, and they went to commercial?!
Is the NHL rigged???" - Barstool Sports
