Hi Everyone,
Here is the order that will be run for the first round of the upcoming Entry Draft. After round 1 Vegas will move back into the 3rd place selection.
Due to GP requirements many of the bottom placed teams moved further down the draft slot.
Entry Draft Rules
b. Draft Order
i. Draft order is based on the NHL formula
1. The 16 teams that missed the playoffs during the previous NHL season are awarded the first 16 picks. They draft in order of fewest points to most points, subject to the results of the draft lottery.
2. The current USHL Cup champion picks last (32nd)
3. The USHL Cup runner-up picks 31st
4. The other two Conference Finalists pick 30th and 29th
5. Regular-season division winners hold the other lowest positions.
6. Remaining teams draft in order of fewest points to most points from the previous regular season.
c. Draft Lottery
i. We will mirror the actual NHL Draft Lottery results. The position each team finishes will correlate to the real life NHL team that finished in that same position.
1. Ex: If the team that finished in 28th place wins the lottery, our 28th place finisher wins, etc
