The 1969 NHL amateur draft was the seventh NHL entry draft. It was held at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in Montreal, Quebec. This draft is notable for being the first NHL draft to be conducted after the league ended direct sponsorship of junior hockey.

The last active players in the NHL from this draft class were Ivan Boldirev and Butch Goring, who both played their last NHL games in the 1984–85 season.
