What the CBA says about the eligibility of the draft:
Thanks Sureloss. So in terms of age. Is the player ineligible to be drafted if they are 21 in that calendar year? By the draft? By Sept?

So in theory if the Flames saw a 20 year old who was undrafted and looks to have a breakout year, they could draft that player instead of waiting for the following year and trying to get him as a FA.

I take it European players can be drafted at any age from what you posted.

Thanks for the clarification.
