The 1974 NHL Amateur Draft was held via conference call at the NHL office in Montreal, Quebec. The NHL Entry Draft is a collective meeting in which the franchises of the National Hockey League (NHL systematically select the rights to available amateur players who meet Montreal, or Montréal in French ( pronounced in French, in English) is the largest city in the Canadian province of Quebec In an effort to prevent the WHA from poaching players, the draft was conducted early and in secret. The World Hockey Association (French Association Mondiale de Hockey) was a professional Ice hockey league that operated in North America from 1972 This failed to prevent tampering as information leaked out via agents and other sources over the three days of the draft. As a statement of frustration at the slow, secret conference call format, Buffalo General Manager Punch Imlach claimed "Taro Tsujimoto" of the "Tokyo Katanas" of Japan using the 183rd overall pick. George "Punch" Imlach ( March 15, 1918 – December 1, 1987) was an NHL coach and general manager Taro Tsujimoto is an imaginary Ice hockey player that was legally drafted by the National Hockey League 's Buffalo Sabres in the 11th round of the 1974 NHL officials immediately validated the selection, but weeks later Imlach admitted that Tsujimoto was a fabrication. The selection was ruled invalid by the NHL and removed from their records. [1]

This also marked the first year the NHL allowed underage players to be signed, a move made in response to the WHA's similar practice the previous year.
