The 2018 NWHL Draft took place on the December 19 and 20, 2018, the first and only draft in NWHL history to happen while the season was underway.[1] The expansion Minnesota Whitecaps would take part in the draft for the first time.[2]
The 2018 draft was the first draft in NWHL history not to see a goaltender selected in the first two rounds, and the first to see an NCAA Division III player selected.[3][4]
