The Professional Women's Hockey League will hold its second draft at the Roy Wilkins Auditorium in downtown Saint Paul, Minnesota on June 10 at 7 p.m. ET followed by the league awards night inside the Great River Ballroom at the InterContinental Saint Paul Riverfront Hotel on June 11 at 1:30 p.m.

The six-team PWHL announced in April that its Minnesota club will be the host team of a draft consisting of 42 picks over seven rounds.

The first draft was held Sept. 18, 2023 in Toronto at the CBC headquarters nearly three months before the league's first game on Jan. 1.

Minnesota selected American forward Taylor Heise with the first overall pick in 2023, in which 90 players were chosen over 15 rounds.

PWHL Toronto made defender Jocelyne Larocque its first pick at No. 2.

The first pick in 2024 will go to the team that earns the most points from games after its elimination from playoff contention. The non-playoff team with the fewest draft order points gets the second pick in the first round.

Numbers three through six goes to the playoff teams based on inverse order of the regular-season standings.

• Historic pick: Minnesota drafts homegrown forward Taylor Heise 1st overall to PWHL

• More PWHL coverage

Subsequent rounds will be conducted in the same order.

"The PWHL draft is one of the most significant events on the league's calendar as we officially turn the page into our second season and introduce the next wave of professional women's hockey talent," league senior vice-president of hockey operations Jayna Hefford said in a statement.
