Can you start a game with a fantasy draft? If so how to do so.
I mean with the regular NHL teams

you could create a fictional league to match the present day NHL and AHL format, enable real players, then it would allow for you to start with a fantasy draft. Of course this way you cannot enable any other league besides the "Major League" and "Minor League".

I'm just curious...does fictional actually start with a Draft? If yes, are there Drafts for both the Major League and Minor League? And when you select "enable real players" what do you get...just NHL/AHL? Free Agents too? All players?

Yes, it does start with a draft. I think it's just players who are contracted by an NHL team and includes all players who's rights are with an NHL team as well as current free agents. There is only a draft for the Major league.
