On Friday, many sources, including former guest on the Let’s Go Devils Podcast Greg Wyshynski, reported that the NHL seems to be full steam ahead with holding the draft in June. It seems very presumptuous and the reports say the teams aren’t on board, but on the heels of the success of the NFL Draft, it sounds like the league and the networks are determined to make it happen. While some may not be on board, this could be a good thing for the New Jersey Devils.
It looks like the draft is going to happen before the regular season ends, or even restarts, which means the conditional picks won’t have a conclusion.
