The Canadiens are armed with 12 more picks, including the first selection in the second round. Six playoff teams from last season — the Bruins, Hurricanes, Flames, Panthers, Avalanche and Rangers — and the Golden Knights still have yet to make a selection.
And, of course, there could still be some minor trades that occur throughout the second day of the draft.

While the first round of the NHL Draft draws prime-time broadcast consideration, the second day of the draft doesn’t. It actually starts pretty early, so here’s everything you need to know about the first round of the 2022 NHL Draft.
