With the other thread about the Draft starting to be loaded, I thought it was better to have a thread about the Free Agent draft and another one about the Entry Level Draft.
From the WHA website
On Sunday, July 18, teams will draft 30 Entry Level Players. Players undrafted in the past 3 years or drafted but unsigned will be eligible. Sixteen year old players who will be 17 prior to the start of the WHA season will also be eligible.
The draft order for the Entry Level Draft will be announced on Saturday, July 17.
The draft begins at 10 a.m. and is open to the public.
Here's a good article about the Entry Level Draft. It looks like Sidney Crosby will go first overall, and don't be surprised if it's to the Halifax Ice Breakers. Alexander Ovechkin will likely not be far behind, but it will be interesting to see who goes after and how many europeans will be taken.
