As you know, the highly anticipated 2022 NHL Draft will be held on July 7-8 at the Bell Centre in Montreal, and the Canadiens hold the first overall pick.

Many fans would like to attend, but tickets are hard to come by, they go fast and they are getting more and more expensive.

If you want to experience the draft without paying too much, the CH has just made a nice announcement and it might interest you.

Here is the official press release:

MONTREAL - There's nothing like experiencing the announcement of the first pick in the 2022 Draft in a general frenzy, along with other Tricolore fans.

Molson Export is hosting a LIVE giant screen viewing party for the first round of the NHL Draft on July 7.

You are invited to the Place des Canadiens, outside the Bell Centre, from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m.

While you wait for Kent Hughes to step up to the microphone to announce the first AND 26th picks, don't miss the official draft red carpet.

See the top 2022 prospects parade before your eyes before the moment you've been waiting for.

Also, meet former Canadiens Steve Bégin and Gilbert Delorme, who will be available for autographs from 5 to 8 p.m.

Our favorite mascot, Youppi!, will of course be doing his trick and a DJ will add his touch to an already festive atmosphere.

If all this excitement is whetting your appetite, you should know that there will be food and beverages on site.

Excellent initiative of the organization of the CH that, indeed, decided to organize a party, the same evening.

We can't wait!
