The NHL Draft kicks off tomorrow, Thursday July 7th at 6 PM CDT. Round one will be broadcast on ESPN and streamed online on ESPN+. Rounds two through seven will commence on Friday, July 8th at 10 AM CDT. That will be broadcast on NHL Network. The Dallas Stars are hosting a watch party at The Owner’s Box at the Omni Hotel in downtown Dallas if you want to see who they take 18th overall in this year’s draft amongst other Stars fans.
This is when the real offseason begins.
All 32 NHL general managers in a city at the same time means there’s more opportunities to wheel and deal.
