[retired/sectionJ]

I thought that I had marked down the date for this year's import draft, but, oops, I did not mark the day on my calendar.
Could anyone help me out, please?
Thanks

It’s usually the last week of June or the first week of July but I’m not sure of the exact date this year

[Dogs Enthusiast 104]

So how does this all work.

We scout people over there, find a good player and see if he has any interest in playing junior in North America?

Or do these players enter the draft to see who takes them? Then decide if they want to play over here?

Both honestly

I have come to learn that it is basically a player agents draft. Or, it's who you know. I could be wrong, but, I don't think so.

Not exactly, Williamson let it be known numerous times that the Dogs have zero scouts over there. They depended on Williamsons “connections” when it came to the import draft. With him gone, who knows how they’ll go about it? Maybe, not having his connections last year played a part in not getting any imports and going the “screw London” route instead.

Might of played a part i just think they took the best player available knowing that they had a chance at him reporting depending on who drafted him and what that team decided leafs choice was the AHL I honestly think this draft is usually like what happened with Halliday players and agents will say sure I’ll come unless they have a better option
