Kevin Owens Cameos At 2022 NHL Draft, Makes As Many Picks As Stanley Cup Champion Colorado Avalanche
Kevin Owens spent an off day hanging out at the NHL Draft.
Day two of the NHL Draft was held on July 8 from the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec and during the broadcast, Canada’s favorite son Kevin Owens decided to join the action. Owens surprised Bruce Boudreau, who has named Owens as one of his top five favorite wrestlers of all time.
Jackie Redmond, who also works with WWE, was part of the broadcast as well.

Owens is not draft-eligible, though he could sign a free agent contract with the 2022 Stanley Cup Champion Colorado Avalanche, who only have two picks in the 2022 NHL Draft due to various trades that helped them win the 2022 Stanley Cup.
Did I mention that the Colorado Avalanche won the 2022 Stanley Cup?
The Avs did so thanks to former top draft picks such as Gabriel Landeskog (2nd overall in 2011), Nathan MacKinnon (1st overall in 2013), Mikko Rantanen (10th overall in 2015), and Cale Makar (4th overall in 2017).
Owens has been off WWE television, probably watching the Colorado Avalanche win the Stanley Cup, since June 20.
