The NHL may not know when this year's draft will take place, but teams do know a lot about the players who will be available to them when it happens.

Because of the coronavirus pandemic, the NHL postponed the Scouting Combine, scheduled for June 1-6 in Buffalo, New York, and the draft, scheduled for June 26-27 in Montreal.

Another major order of business still to be determined is whether the league will be able to finish the 2019-20 season. Deputy commissioner Bill Daly has said the NHL is trying to figure out a way to preserve the integrity of the postseason if games resume.
