The 2009 NHL Entry Draft


Well the 2009 NHL Entry Draft is a little over 24 hours away, are you excited? I know that it's one of my favourite events of the year (hard to guess right?).

I'll be keeping track of the draft here on the blog, by way of a spreadsheet that you can find below. It's primarily organized by my top 50. Also included are my list of the top draft re-entries, as well as players not signed by NHL teams from the 2007 draft. And of course, by the wild chance that an NHL team selects a player outside of my top 50, I'll be including them too.

Below the spreadsheet can be found the full links to my top 50 write up, as well as the rankings write ups by blog contributors Sean Keogh and Ryan Yessie.
