13th annual meeting of National Hockey League franchises to select newly eligible players
The 1975 NHL amateur draft was the 13th NHL entry draft. It was held at the NHL office in Montreal , Quebec . The two-time defending Stanley Cup champion Philadelphia Flyers made the most noise at the draft, trading Bill Clement , Don McLean , and the 18th overall pick to the Washington Capitals for the number one overall selection, which they used to select Mel Bridgman . Later in round nine the Flyers became the first NHL team to select a Soviet-born and trained player in the amateur draft, selecting Latvian Viktor Khatulev 160th pick overall.[ 1]
The last active player in the NHL from this draft class was Dave Taylor , who retired after the 1993–94 season .
