USHL Futures Draft


When is the USHL Futures Draft?
The draft will take place on Tuesday, April 19, 2011 at 10:00 a.m. CDT.

Who is eligible to be drafted?
Only players born in 1995 are eligible to be drafted.

Do players have to register for the draft?
Players do not have to register to be drafted.

If a player is drafted by a USHL team in the May draft, can they be put on the affiliate list?
Yes. Players born in 1995 that are drafted in the May draft are allowed to be placed on the team's affiliate list.

How many rounds are there in the draft?
The futures draft will consist of a maximum of 6 rounds.

How many players can be drafted by a team?
Each team will select 6 players with 1995 birthdates.

What is an affiliate list?
The affiliate list is a list of 13 players that a team is allowed to protect in addition to their 23-man active roster.

How long does a team retain the rights of a player selected in the futures draft?
It depends on the age of the player. For this year's futures draft, players born in 1993 will remain property of the selecting team for one (1) year. Players born in 1994 will remain property of the selecting team for two (2) years. Players born in 1995 will remain property of the selecting team for three (3) years.

Does getting drafted guarantee that you are on a USHL team?
No, a player that is chosen in the futures draft is not automatically on a USHL team. The player may be placed on the team's affiliate list.

When can a player selected in the futures draft be placed on a USHL roster?
Players on the affiliated list can be moved to a team's active roster at any time and for any reason. If an affiliated player is moved to a team's active roster before the February 10 roster deadline, they will be eligible to play for the remainder of the regular season as well as the post-season. Affiliated players added to the active roster after February 10 will not be eligible to play in the post-season.

How is the draft order determined?
The draft order for the futures draft is determined using a random draw, thus giving every team in the league the opportunity to land the first overall selection (with the exception being expansion years where the new team selects first). Unlike the May entry draft, the process has nothing to do with the order of finish from the previous season.

Can players taken in the futures draft be traded?
Yes. Players that are taken in the futures draft and placed on a team's affiliate list can be traded from that list to another team's affiliated list. If the drafted player has already been placed on a team's active roster, they can be traded to another team's active roster.

How does a player know when he has been drafted?
If a player is watching the futures draft live, he will see his name on the screen at the time of his selection. Following the draft, players will be contacted by a member of the coaching staff from the team that selected him. Coaches are instructed by the league office to contact players that are chosen within 24 hours of the draft.

Is the draft open to the public?
Much like the USHL Futures Draft in May of 2010, the 2011 Futures Draft will be conducted live over the Internet. Interested parties can view the draft on the league's official web site, www.ushldraft.com. Check back to the site in the future for more information on how to watch this year's draft. Public availability of the draft is subject to change.

When will the final draft results be posted?
Upon completion of the futures draft, a draft board will be compiled and the results will be posted as soon as possible, most likely within a few hours of the draft's completion. Results will also be posted on the league web site.
