CHL Import Draft

The CHL Import Draft is an annual event in the Canadian Hockey League where teams select young international players to join their roster. Its purpose is to bring talented athletes from outside Canada and the U.S. into the league, enhancing competition and talent development. Teams take turns choosing players based on a draft order, which is designed to promote fairness and competitive balance among franchises. Once drafted, these players can compete in the league for several years, helping them develop their skills and pursue professional hockey careers.
