The 2019 NHL Draft is almost here and while the Blues hoisted the Stanley Cup just over a week ago, the other 30 teams in the league already have their sights set on next season.
The top prizes in this year's draft are prospects Jack Hughes and Kaapo Kakko. The Devils hold the top pick in the draft and Hughes is presumed to be the player New Jersey's leaning toward. The Finland native Kakko is expected to go second overall to the Rangers. After that, it's anyone's best guess.
Commencing over two days, the 2019 draft will be held at Rogers Arena in Vancouver.
Here's everything you need to know about how to tune in, including the start time and first-round draft order.
