The 2006 NHL entry draft was the 44th draft for the National Hockey League. It was held at General Motors Place in Vancouver on June 24, 2006.
The draft order for the first 14 picks was decided during a lottery held on April 20. The draft was televised in Canada on TSN and RDS, with the first three hours simulcast in the United States on OLN.
As of 2026, the seven remaining active players in the NHL from this draft are Nick Foligno, Claude Giroux, Brad Marchand, Jeff Petry, James Reimer, Jordan Staal, and Jonathan Toews. Semyon Varlamov remains under contract until the 2026–27 NHL season but has not played for the Islanders since November 24, 2024 due to a knee injury.
