The 2025 NHL Draft will be the 63rd NHL Entry Draft. It will be held at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee, United States. This will be the city’s first time hosting the NHL Draft.
The NHL Draft is an annual event where teams select eligible players to add to their rosters. The draft is held in late June or early July, after the Stanley Cup Finals have concluded. The order of selection is determined by the previous season’s standings, with the worst team getting the first pick and the best team getting the last pick.
