NHL Draft & Prospects
Rankings, scouting reports and where the next wave is playing right now — major junior, the USHL, college hockey and Europe.
The draft
The NHL draft is held each June; every team picks in seven rounds, and a weighted lottery among non-playoff teams decides the top of the order.
Where prospects play
Follow them week to week.
Prospect rankings are opinion and change weekly, so this hub does not freeze a list in place: it sends you to the current ones. About our data →
