Tonight at 7 p.m. ET, the National Hockey League's future is on full display when the 2015 NHL Draft emanates live from the BB&T Center in Florida.
The NHL Draft takes place live from the home of the Florida Panthers and will be a memorable night as some of the NHL's brightest future stars will achieve their dreams.
The major hype surrounding the proceedings revolves around Erie Otters phenom and center Connor McDavid, who is projected to be taken No. 1 overall by the Edmonton Oilers.

McDavid, 18, is a highly touted prospect and has drawn comparisons to Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby and NHL Hall of Famer Wayne Gretzky, which is high praise. It is expected that McDavid will be a generational player.
McDavid's good friend Jack Eichel, the 2014-15 Hobey Baker Award winner out of Boston University, is expected to be selected with the No. 2 overall pick by the Buffalo Sabres.
The Sabres have had a busy day already, adding goaltender Robin Lehner in a trade with the Ottawa Senators and now they look to select the 18-year-old center to continue the revamp of the franchise.
