The Draft Night Party is the premier event of the tournament, where
participants and NHL Alumni have the opportunity to mix and mingle.
How do you draft your favorite NHL alumni? It’s simple, the more money your
team raises, the higher you draft!
The Draft Night Party will be held the evening before the tournament. Every
participating team will have the opportunity to draft one NHL alumnus player
to their team.
So, the more money your team raises, the better your chance of drafting your
favorite NHL alumni.
Participants with their drafted alumni will eat and drink together at the Draft
Night party extravaganza as the drama of the draft unfolds in the hands of
our celebrity Master of Ceremonies.
