The order has been set and the Vancouver Canucks know where they’ll pick in the 2020 NHL draft.
Vancouver doesn’t have picks in rounds one or two, as they were traded away in the JT Miller trade and the @Tyler Toffoli deal, respectively.
The club’s first pick will come in the third round 82nd overall. In round four, Vancouver picks 113th overall and in the fifth, the Canucks draft 144th overall.
Vancouver picks 175th overall in the sixth round and in round seven, the Canucks own Anaheim’s pick at 191st overall. Vancouver traded their seventh-round pick in the @Marek Mazanec deal.
The draft is set to kick off at 7 p.m. EST next Tuesday. Here is the procedure for how the full draft order was decided:
