It's back-to-back draft nights.

Thursday the NBA Draft followed by Friday's NHL Draft.  For Sioux Falls fans this years draft prospects include a former Sioux Falls Stampede player.

He's Kieffer Bellows who played for the Herd for just one season in 2014.  Recently as a winger for the U.S. National Development Team.

According to an NHL scouting report Bellows is ranked as the 10th best North American player.

In previous years European and Canadian players have been taken in the first ten rounds but that could all change with the talent we have right here in the United States.

The first round of the 2016 draft is Friday at 6 p.m. Rounds 2-7 are Saturday beginning at 9 a.m.
