He's saying that Gaudreau will help them in the ping pong lotto draw, like "destiny was on their side", "someone up there was looking out for them" kinda thing, when you get a lucky break.
I understand what he's trying to say, but absolutely brutal phrasing.

What I don't think he meant is "because their leading scorer from the last two seasons passed away, they will be the worst team"
what a moronic thing to say. he may look like a 60 year old, but the professional acumen of an adolescent.
The journalism profession is supersaturated with themProves that there are morons in every profession.
Any team that wins the NHL Draft Lotto gets "lucky" in that there is only like a 25 % chance even for the worst team and worse odds for any other team, it's completely random chance. People will often associate random chance occurrences as happening due to some higher power/fate/destiny. That's essentially what Seravalli is "predicting"... that Columbus wins a chance occurrence and that is a result of Gaudreau spiritually influencing the drawing from the afterlife.
