[Tony]

Question : The player doesnt need to be from this years entry draft  does he ? Its just less then 40 games played isnt it ?

Yes, just make sure nobody has the player you pick. 

How Draft Will Be Conducted

  -  Prior to the NHL entry draft, teams will be required to provide a proxy pick list if they feel they will be unavailable for the draft.
  -  If a team is not present for the draft/times out, and did not provide a proxy pick, they'll be awarded the next highest ranked player that they can afford.
   - Rankings will be in accordance with the real life entry draft
   - Entry Draft will have players who are eligible for the real life NHL Entry Draft and any players who are under 40 games played of NHL experience.
   - General managers must provide their pick on a 5 minute clock, if they fail to make a pick within this 5 minute clock a player in accordance to the rankings list will be picked for the team

Can you place the name of the selected players next to their pick like you did last year? This made selected players so much easier, especially in the later rounds.
