The draft was set up in an effort to eliminate the sponsorship of amateur teams and players by the NHL's member clubs so the playing field of the NHL could be leveled a bit and each team would have an equal opportunity to acquire amateur players.
The current name of the Draft came in 1979, when the league decided to change the name from "Amateur" to "Entry" to reflect the inclusion of young players eligible for selection who had played professionally in the now-defunct World Hockey Association.
Beginning with the 1980 Entry Draft, all 18, 19 and 20-year-old North American and non-North American born players have been eligible to be drafted, and non-North American players 21 years old or older are eligible for claim.
