The OHL conducts the annual Priority Selection typically the first Saturday in April and the process is by way of the Internet to allow eligible players and their families, as well as fans across the league to follow the draft in real time online.
The annual Priority Selection features 300 picks over 15 rounds. For the 13th straight year the OHL Priority Selection Draft Show showcased the first three rounds through a live video stream online including live pick-by-pick results. In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, this year's Priority Selection will be held entirely online, adhering to all government and public health physical distancing guidelines at both the League and member team levels. This year's unique approach to a very special day will be conducted in the interest of ensuring the health and safety of prospects, their families as well as OHL member team and League personnel.
North American players that reside in the province of Ontario, the states of Michigan, Pennsylvania and New York and other designated U.S. states east of the Mississippi River born January 1, 2001 through December 31, 2004 are eligible for selection through the 15 round process this year.
The order of selection is determined by inverse order of finish during the past OHL regular season schedule of games with non-playoff teams selection ahead of playoff teams.
