Round two of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs is here. The list of potential teams that will be the last one standing and named National Hockey League’s next titleholder has been halved.
The playoffs continue on Wednesday, May 7, with game two of Toronto Maple Leafs vs Florida Panthers and the start of the series between Winnipeg Jets and Dallas Stars.
The league’s biggest stars and up-and-comers on each remaining team will have to step up to get across the finish line while the rest of the league’s teams move onto future prospects and lock in for the 2025 NHL Draft.
We’re getting into mock draft season 👀
The @NYIslanders won last night’s NHL Draft Lottery so of course the only reasonable reaction is a mock draft… right? 👀

Can the Toronto Maple Leafs end their streak of losing in the first two rounds despite making the postseason the past 9 seasons? Could this be the year Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers hoist the cup for the first time since 1990?

The National Hockey League’s first entry draft was held in 1963 and was set up with the goal to allow teams to select rights to the world’s best young talent on the ice, typically between 18 and 21 years old. It’s typically held two to three months after the season concludes.
In 2025, the NHL Draft will start on Friday, June 27 at 7:00 p.m. ET with Round 1 and continue with Round 2-7 on Saturday, June 28 at 12:00 p.m. ET. It will be hosted at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, CA. 
Round 1 streams live on ESPN, ESPN+, Sportsnet, and TVA Sports. Round 2 streams live on NHL Network, ESPN+, Sportsnet, and SN1. 
The NHL Draft Lottery determined the order for the first round of picks. For round two and beyond, the teams will pick in the reverse order of points earned during the regular season, starting with the San Jose Sharks.
The Hershey Bears have built a winning culture in the AHL and are looking for their third consecutive Calder Cup, a feat that no team has accomplished since 1962.
