Coverage will also be available on radio-canada.ca/sports and the Radio-Canada info app, while international audiences can watch the draft on CBC Sports’ and Radio-Canada’s YouTube pages. A total of 90 players will be introduced as they are selected in the inaugural PWHL Draft presented by Canadian Tire Corp. (CTC). The six teams – Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Minnesota, New York and Boston – will draft their lineups throughout the 15 rounds. Minnesota won the first overall pick in the snake draft through a lottery process. “The inaugural PWHL Draft is a monumental event in our league’s history and a day the players have been waiting for with great anticipation and excitement,” said Jayna Hefford, PWHL senior vice president of hockey operations.
