Tonight is the night. It is draft night for 30 young players waiting for the call to join an NHL franchise.
The preparation and anticipation has been endless. This is one of the most highly-profiled draft classes in recent memory, and a historic night is in store.
As part of Flyerdelphia's extensive coverage, we've put together a mock draft for tonight's first round. This is based on the top prospects in the draft as well our series on the prospects eligible for this year's draft.
Our series began on April 23 and featured 26 players. It's time to see how we think the picks play out. [Note: This is assuming no trades occur in the first round and all teams retain their scheduled picks.]
