Format

The draft consisted of 15 rounds. The order of picks in the first round was decided by using a computerized list randomizer during a video conference call with all 6 team's general managers.[4] In the second round this order was reversed, so the team with the 6th pick would also receive the 7th pick, whilst the team with first overall pick would not pick again until the 12th pick (last pick in the second round). The order would continue alternating in each subsequent round, producing a 'snaking' order.[5]

The final draft order was:

  1. Minnesota
  2. Toronto
  3. Boston
  4. New York
  5. Ottawa
  6. Montreal
