The 2026 NHL Entry Draft got underway on Friday night in Buffalo as the league welcomed in its next generation of stars.
It started with the Toronto Maple Leafs, who selected Gavin McKenna with the No. 1 overall pick, then the San Jose Sharks selected Ivar Stenberg with the second pick. As the night went on, 32 players found their new homes.
But the first night of the draft was not only about picks. There were some major trades, including the Boston Bruins, who traded the No. 23 overall pick and a 2028 first-round pick (top-10 protected) to acquire winger JJ Peterka from the Utah Mammoth. Around the NHL, the New York Rangers acquired Pavel Dorofeyev, and the St. Louis Blues traded for Mason McTavish.
Now, eyes shift to Saturday for Rounds 2 through 7 of the draft, and the frantic pace isn’t expected to slow down. The action resumes Saturday morning as teams look to fill out the remaining six rounds of the draft.
Follow along right here for a complete list of selections from the 2026 NHL Draft.
