Our First Mock Draft of the 2026–27 Fantasy Hockey Season

Draft season has officially begun.

Blake, Nate, Brian and Evan are joined by eight Apples & Ginos listeners for our first live fantasy hockey mock draft of the 2026–27 season. The group completes a full 12-team points-league draft using official APL scoring.

We break down our strategies in real time, debate early player values and react to the reaches, steals, positional runs and difficult decisions that shaped the draft.

Who built the best roster—and which picks will look completely different by the time the season begins?
