2022 NHL entry draft

Rare card · No. 44379

The 2022 NHL entry draft was the 60th draft for the National Hockey League. It was held on July 7–8, 2022, at the Bell Centre in Montreal. Montreal was originally scheduled to host the 2020 draft but was unable to do so due to the COVID-19 pandemic. For the first time since 1985, the team hosting the draft selected first overall. The first three selections were Juraj Slafkovsky by the hosting Montreal Canadiens, Simon Nemec by the New Jersey Devils, and Logan Cooley by the Arizona Coyotes. The selections of Slovak players Slafkovsky and Nemec made this the second time that the top two draftees came from a single European country, after Russians Alexander Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin in 2004.
