How do you get to the NHL what league do you go first. hi I'm a kid and I want to know how can you play in the NHL how do you do it what leagues do go? also can you get scouted in house leagues or bantam hockey without AA or AAA? in junior hockey could u just register for a try out camp or do u have to get invited from lower levels? usually how long will it take for a person to get to the NHL from the bantam hockey to higher levels?
