The 1993 NHL Expansion Draft was held on June 24, 1993, in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. The draft took place to fill the rosters of the league's two expansion teams for the 1993–94 season, the Florida Panthers and the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim.
[edit] RulesThe 24 teams existing in the league at the time of the draft were each allowed to protect one goaltender, five defensemen and nine forwards. All first-year pros were exempt from claim, and all second-year pros on the reserve list were exempt from claim. 48 players were chosen in the draft, two from each franchise. Only one goaltender or one defensemen could be selected from each franchise. Therefore, six teams would lose one goaltender and one forward, sixteen teams would lose one defenceman and one forward, and two teams would lose two forwards. Both the Panthers and the Mighty Ducks were to select three goaltenders, eight defensemen, and thirteen forwards. [edit] Draft results
[edit] Phase IIThere was a second phase to the 1993 NHL Expansion Draft, in which the Tampa Bay Lightning, Ottawa Senators, and San Jose Sharks (the three expansion teams who joined the league in the two previous seasons) selected players from the Panthers and Mighty Ducks. The Panthers and Mighty Ducks were allowed to protect one goaltender, five defensemen, and ten forwards. The three teams each chose two players. The Panthers and Mighty Ducks each were to lose one goaltender, one defenseman, and one forward. This mini-draft was held the day after the main draft, on June 25, 1993. This list is incomplete.
* The Lightning, on the same day, traded Glenn Healy to the New York Rangers in exchange for a third-round pick in the 1993 NHL Entry Draft. [edit] See also
