2020 OHL Priority Selection Order of Selection
The 2020 OHL Priority Selection presented by Real Canadian Superstore takes place on Saturday, April 4th commencing at 9:00am and will include 300 picks across 15 rounds. Watch the first three rounds live on the OHL’s YouTube channel.
Given the cancellation of the 2019-20 OHL regular season, the order of Selection for the 2020 OHL Priority Selection is determined by inverse order of the standings at the 61-game mark of the 2019-20 OHL regular season schedule of games with those teams who would not have qualified for the playoffs at that time selecting ahead of teams in playoff positions.
The 15-round Order of Selection will be finalized on Friday at 3:00pm once the League’s trading period concludes.
