The Philadelphia Flyers have secured the 13th overall pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, which will be held virtually on Friday, July 23, and Saturday, July 24.
This year’s draft promises to be unique in many ways, largely due to chaotic NHL scheduling necessitated in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The dominos will begin to fall leading up to the Seattle Kraken Expansion Draft, scheduled just two days prior to the Entry Draft.
