The FWHL Import Draft runs every offseason. It is run a bit differently than the CHL model. The FWHL model includes all import players drafted into the WHL alongside WHL free agents and more. Players who were walk-ons to teams or players who defected from other leagues.
Four rounds in reverse order of the previous year's standings.
If there is a season where the Free Agent player list is vast, more rounds would be considered.
Each team is still only permitted to having 2 import players signed to their roster. In order to make an import selection, teams must waive import players currently on their team roster. This must take place right before a team makes a pick in the draft. Players dropped will be moved to the Free Agents page.
If you select a Free Agent player or an American player they will be added to your roster with no limitations. These are players who weren't the property of any FWHL team previously. But played a season in the WHL and are now rated players.
Import (IMP) selections of the draft won't be eligible to be moved until a month before the trade deadline (TBD).
Teams will have an option to opt-out of making a selection if they so wish.
