2021 NHL draft live updates: Pick tracker, analysis for all 32 teams

NHL Draft, NHL, Fantasy NHL

The 2021 NHL draft is complete, and we have tracked all 224 picks over two days and seven rounds, starting with the Buffalo Sabres' selection at No. 1 overall of Owen Power. 

This year's class of prospects came in with little consensus as per rankings and evaluations, thanks to uneven -- or nonexistent -- seasons for many junior, collegiate and/or international leagues amid the COVID-19 pandemic. But the group is extremely talented, with numerous future impact players at the NHL level.

Following the Sabres in Round 1 were the Seattle Kraken, who just completed their full expansion draft and then made their first ever draft pick at No. 2 overall (Matthew Beniers).

Here are all 224 picks from the 2021 NHL draft, along with analysis on every Round 1 selection. 

ROUND 1

1. Buffalo Sabres: Owen Power, D

Team: Michigan (Big Ten)
Ranking: 1 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-6 | Wt: 213 | Shot: L
Stats: 26 GP, 3 G, 13 A

How he fits: It's not often that a team gets the first overall pick in the draft in two out of four seasons. It's also not often that a team uses those two No. 1 picks to then select defensemen, but that's how the draft classes have worked out for the Sabres. Rasmus Dahlin, No. 1 overall in 2018, hasn't quite leveled up to franchise defenseman status yet, but he's only 21 years old. Now Power joins him as another left-side defenseman who Buffalo can build around in the next decade -- perhaps using the pieces it gets for an eventual Jack Eichel trade, for example. -- Wyshynski


2. Seattle Kraken: Matthew Beniers, C

Team: Michigan (Big Ten)
Ranking: 3 | Nationality: USA
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-2 | Wt: 175 | Shot: L
Stats: 24 GP, 10 G, 14 A

How he fits: Kraken head coach Dave Hakstol told me that his general manager, Ron Francis, wanted to acquire players who reminded the Hall of Famer of the way he played. Well, he just drafted a two-way center with great skating ability, dynamic offense and a "leads-by-example" work ethic, which should be familiar to Francis. Beniers is a great building block for the NHL's newest franchise. He fancied Patrice Bergeron growing up, but Beniers may end up becoming the Kraken's own version of Jonathan Toews one day. -- Wyshynski


3. Anaheim Ducks: Mason McTavish, C

Team: Peterborough (OHL)
Ranking: 9 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-1 | Wt: 207 | Shot: L

How he fits: As the Ryan Getzlaf era fades into memory, the Ducks get themselves another talented center who plays a power game. McTavish's stock shot up the draft board in the past few weeks, and you can see why: He has an NHL shot, plays strong and has drawn comparisons to Ryan O'Reilly. Anaheim has a solid foundation building with forward Trevor Zegras, defenseman Jamie Drysdale and now McTavish. -- Wyshynski


4. New Jersey Devils: Luke Hughes, D

Team: USA U-18 (NTDP)
Ranking: 5 | Nationality: USA
Age: 17 | Ht: 6-2 | Wt: 184 | Shot: L
Stats: 38 GP, 6 G, 28 A

How he fits: Obviously, the master plan is to collect two Hughes brothers in the hopes that they magnetically attract Quinn Hughes to join the Devils at some point. Just kidding ... maybe. Luke Hughes may not have the offensive dynamism that Quinn Hughes does, but his solid two-way game will be an asset to the Devils as he joins Ty Smith among the next-wave defensemen. And if all else fails, the team has a heck of a marketing hook with the Brothers Hughes -- and a happy star in Jack Hughes, which is always a good thing. -- Wyshynski


5. Columbus Blue Jackets: Kent Johnson, C

Team: Michigan (Big Ten)
Ranking: 7 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-1 | Wt: 167 | Shot: L
Stats: 26 GP, 9 G, 18 A

How he fits: The Blue Jackets have chased a franchise center for years. They thought they had ones in Ryan Johansen and Pierre-Luc Dubois, before trading both. Now comes Johnson, a late-bloomer who had an absolutely tremendous, highlight-generating freshman season at Michigan. One issue: He might be better on the wing, where many draft analysts believe he'll put up huge numbers in the NHL. Wherever he plays, he'll be an elite playmaker. -- Wyshynski


6. Detroit Red Wings: Simon Edvinsson, D

Team: Frolunda Jr. (Sweden Jr.)
Ranking: 8 | Nationality: SWE
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-4 | Wt: 198 | Shot: L
Stats: 14 GP, 1 G, 5 A

How he fits: Talented Swede joins the Red Wings. In other news, water remains wet. Edvinsson gives Detroit a player many feel projects to be a franchise blueliner. The Red Wings now have a foundational 6-foot-5 defenseman on the left side to join their foundational 6-foot-4 defenseman on the right side in Moritz Seider. Hey, the Red Wings know from trying to build from the Swedish defensemen out. Ask Steve Yzerman. -- Wyshynski


7. San Jose Sharks: William Eklund, LW

Team: Djurgarden (Sweden)
Ranking: 2 | Nationality: SWE
Age: 18 | Ht: 5-10 | Wt: 176 | Shot: L
Stats: 40 GP, 11 G, 12 A

How he fits: This is the first top-10 pick the Sharks have had since taking Timo Meier at No. 9 overall in 2015. Eklund gives the Sharks a silky smooth offensive player who also takes care of business at the other end of the rink. The Sharks don't exactly have a robust prospect pool and don't have anyone at the forward spot at the caliber of Eklund. -- Wyshynski


8. Los Angeles Kings: Brandt Clarke, D

Team: Barrie (OHL)
Ranking: 6 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-2 | Wt: 185 | Shot: R

How he fits: Clarke joins arguably the deepest prospect pool in the NHL with the Kings. But as deep as that pool is, it has more big fish at center and wing than on the blue line. Given that need, and GM Rob Blake's legacy as a Hall of Fame defenseman, this was one of the draft's most predictable picks. Given his hockey sense and offensive awareness, there have already been comparisons for Clarke to the kind of impact Adam Fox has had early in his NHL career with the Rangers. Fox just won the Norris Trophy. No pressure, Brandt. -- Wyshynski


9. Arizona Coyotes: Dylan Guenther, RW

Team: Edmonton (WHL)
Ranking: 4 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-2 | Wt: 175 | Shot: R
Stats: 12 GP, 12 G, 12 A

How he fits: The Coyotes started the day without a first-round pick, having had to forfeit it (No. 11) because they violated the NHL's scouting combine testing rules. Then the Canucks sent the ninth overall pick to Arizona in the trade that sent Oliver Ekman-Larsson to Vancouver, and now we can officially include Guenther as part of the bounty Arizona received in that deal. He was projected by many to go as high as No. 3 overall to the Ducks. He drops here to the Coyotes, who get the kind of goal scorer their prospect pipeline lacks. His shot is great, but his ability to find spaces to get that shot off is equally impressive. -- Wyshynski


10. Ottawa Senators: Tyler Boucher, RW

Team: USA U-18 (NTDP)
Ranking: 40 | Nationality: USA
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-1 | Wt: 205 | Shot: R
Stats: 12 GP, 6 G, 5 A

How he fits: Three words: Off ... the ... board. Boucher is going to be a fine pro. He's a winger who blends offense with absolute physicality and agitation on every shift and a tenacious player who plays the kind of blue-collar, hard-nosed game that Senators coach D.J. Smith no doubt enjoys. But Boucher was the 25th ranked North American skater as ranked by Central Scouting. You couldn't find a mock draft that had him slotted this high. Perhaps trading down to where they thought he'd end up would be too much of a guessing game for the Senators. They wanted him, they had the No. 10 pick and they got him. But it was a reach, and it came at the cost of not drafting either of the first round's two goaltenders. -- Wyshynski


11. Arizona Coyotes: Forfeited

The Coyotes were forced to surrender their 2021 first-round pick at No. 11 overall after violating the NHL's rules on pre-combine testing.


12. Columbus Blue Jackets: Cole Sillinger, C

Team: Sioux Falls (USHL)
Ranking: 12 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-0 | Wt: 197 | Shot: L
Stats: 31 GP, 24 G, 22 A

How he fits: Yes, Mike "Suitcase" Sillinger did in fact play for the Blue Jackets from 2001 to 2003. Now his son is tabbed to join the Columbus family. He has a terrific shot and plays an aggressive brand of offense, tallying 46 points in 31 games last season for the Sioux Falls Stampede. The Blue Jackets take their second forward of the first round. They've only used their first two picks on forwards once since 2014. Has the end of the John Tortorella era ushered in a more offensive era? -- Wyshynski


13. Calgary Flames: Matthew Coronato, RW

Team: Chicago (USHL)
Ranking: 16 | Nationality: USA
Age: 18 | Ht: 5-10 | Wt: 183 | Shot: R
Stats: 51 GP, 48 G, 37 A

How he fits: Yet another place where many felt goalies Jesper Wallstedt or Sebastian Cossa could have been selected. But the Flames opted for Coronato, a player with an absolute nose for the net as a goal scorer. He's Harvard bound and had 48 goals in 51 games in the USHL last season. If the Flames didn't believe either goalie was the future for them, then this is a nice pick. -- Wyshynski


14. Buffalo Sabres: Isak Rosen, RW

Team: Leksand (Sweden)
Ranking: 25 | Nationality: SWE
Age: 18 | Ht: 5-11 | Wt: 156 | Shot: L
Stats: 22 GP, 0 G, 1 A

How he fits: Another franchise that needs a goalie, another franchise that opted not to take one. Instead the Sabres select a terrific offensive forward in Rosen. The modern NHL game demands the ability to make plays at a high velocity. Rosen has the skating ability to create separation from defenders. His ability to shoot the puck at full stride has earned him Nikolaj Ehlers' comparisons. The Sabres could certainly use that, too. -- Wyshynski


15. Detroit Red Wings: Sebastian Cossa, G

Team: Edmonton (WHL)
Ranking: 14 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-6 | Wt: 210 | Catch: L
Stats: 19 GP, 0.941 save pct., 1.57 GAA

How he fits: The Red Wings flipped the No. 23 pick -- along with the 48th and 138th overall selections to the Stars for this selection. Obviously that was a function of seeing Cossa still on the board. Cossa stands 6-foot-6 and has good agility in the crease. He went 17-1-1 with a .941 save percentage for the Edmonton Oil Kings. After Keith Petruzzelli opted not to sign with the Red Wings, the team didn't really have anyone in the mold of a goalie of the future. Cossa fits that mold, and fits the M.O. of GM Steve Yzerman. Back in 2012, he didn't have a goalie of the future with the Lightning, so he drafted a kid from the Russian juniors in the first round. That kid just won the Conn Smythe and his second straight Stanley Cup: Andrei Vasilevskiy. -- Wyshynski


16. New York Rangers: Brennan Othmann, LW

Team: Flint (OHL)
Ranking: 21 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-0 | Wt: 175 | Shot: L

How he fits: Not the best forward available here -- that honor probably goes to Chaz Lucius, Fabian Lysell or Fedor Svechkov -- but Othmann fits a particular need for the Rangers. He plays with speed, loves to get on the forecheck and was an impressive member of the Canadian World Junior team this season. He played professionally in the Swiss League, too. He could be a little closer to making an NHL impact than some of the other forwards in the first round, which is good for a Rangers team that's just about ready to turn the corner to contention. -- Wyshynski


17. St. Louis Blues: Zachary Bolduc, C

Team: Rimouski (QMJHL)
Ranking: 28 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-1 | Wt: 175 | Shot: L
Stats: 27 GP, 10 G, 19 A

How he fits: It's a little bit of a reach for the Blues here. Bolduc needs to develop an NHL frame and isn't among the first round's better skaters. But he has a solid wrist shot in his offensive repertoire and could certainly develop into a top-six forward. Others may have been surer things. But GM Doug Armstrong correctly snags a center here, which is an area of need in the Blues' rather shallow prospect pool. -- Wyshynski


18. Winnipeg Jets: Chaz Lucius, C

Team: USA U-18 (NTDP)
Ranking: 10 | Nationality: USA
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-1 | Wt: 185 | Shot: R
Stats: 13 GP, 13 G, 7 A

How he fits: We're torn on this one. Lucius is a really solid pick, no doubt. He is a goal scorer, a playmaker and a USA Hockey product -- and GM Kevin Cheveldayoff no doubt has visions of another Kyle Connor dancing through his head. Lucius missed a lot of time due to knee surgery but has enough proof of concept to earn this draft placement. However, these are the Jets. We all know about their defensive needs. Having one of the defensemen still on the board join Dylan Samberg and Ville Heinola as the future of the Winnipeg defensive corps wouldn't have been a bad choice, either. -- Wyshynski


19. Nashville Predators: Fedor Svechkov, C

Team: Togliatti (Russia 2)
Ranking: 22 | Nationality: RUS
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-0 | Wt: 187 | Shot: L
Stats: 38 GP, 5 G, 10 A

How he fits: After selecting goalie Yaroslav Askarov last season with the 11th overall pick, GM David Poile goes back to Russia to select Svechkov. The center posted some flashy offensive numbers in international play for Russia, including 10 points in seven games at the World Juniors. He can start his offensive plays in the defensive end, too. The Predators will wait for this one, if Svechkov can't make the leap to the NHL right away. -- Wyshynski


20. Minnesota Wild: Jesper Wallstedt, G

Team: Lulea (Sweden)
Ranking: 11 | Nationality: SWE
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-3 | Wt: 214 | Catch: L
Stats: 22 GP, 0.908 save pct., 2.23 GAA

How he fits: The Wild acquired this pick by flipping the 22nd and 90th overall selections to the Oilers -- another trade-up to get a goalie. There's proof of concept here with Wallstedt in both international play and in one season in the Swedish Hockey League. He's slightly smaller than Sebastian Cossa but no slouch at 6-foot-3. He has the tools for become a No. 1 in the NHL. The best goalie prospect in the system is already on the roster: Kaapo Kahkonen, 24, was most recently seen exposed in the Seattle expansion draft. Wallstedt has a higher ceiling. -- Wyshynski


21. Boston Bruins: Fabian Lysell, RW

Team: Lulea (Sweden)
Ranking: 13 | Nationality: SWE
Age: 18 | Ht: 5-11 | Wt: 172 | Shot: R
Stats: 26 GP, 2 G, 1 A

How he fits: Swerve! In five of his six drafts with the Bruins, GM Don Sweeney -- a former NHL defenseman -- has selected a blueliner with his first pick. Instead, he opts for Lysell here. There are few offensive players in the first round with his "wow" factor, with a combination of blazing-fast skating and a tremendous shot. He's also a deft stick handler, especially in offensive zone traffic. Like Isak Rosen, Lysell has earned Nikolaj Ehlers comparisons, but he needs to get a little stronger to make that kind of NHL impact. -- Wyshynski


22. Edmonton Oilers: Xavier Bourgault, C

Team: Shawinigan (QMJHL)
Ranking: 19 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-0 | Wt: 172 | Shot: R
Stats: 29 GP, 20 G, 20 A

How he fits: Bourgault is a reach here, but once you get to the bottom of the first round, it's all relative. He has torn up the QMJHL with 111 points in 92 games over the past two seasons. That Edmonton was still able to get the player it wanted after trading down two spots is a nice piece of business for GM Ken Holland. -- Wyshynski


23. Dallas Stars: Wyatt Johnston, C

Team: Windsor (OHL)
Ranking: NR | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-1 | Wt: 178 | Shot: R

How he fits: Interesting pick. The Stars probably could have traded down and still landed Johnston, given that a lot of mock drafts had him on the bubble or in the second round. He had a strong U18 World Juniors with four points in seven games, and he has a great hockey sense around the offensive zone. Johnston fits with the kind of role player GM Jim Nill likes, and he was the 16th-ranked North American skater by NHL Central Scouting despite not playing last year due to the OHL COVID-19 postponement. -- Wyshynski


24. Florida Panthers: Mackie Samoskevich, RW

Team: Chicago (USHL)
Ranking: 27 | Nationality: USA
Age: 18 | Ht: 5-11 | Wt: 191 | Shot: R
Stats: 36 GP, 13 G, 24 A

How he fits: Samoskevich was the 26th-ranked North American skater by NHL Central Scouting. He has the kind of skating and offensive chops to lead a rush and send the defense scrambling back into its own zone. His stature will no doubt grow as part of a Michigan team with designs on a national championship. There weren't many mocks that had him in the first round, but GM Bill Zito clearly felt there was no point in trading down. -- Wyshynski


25. Columbus Blue Jackets: Corson Ceulemans, D

Team: Brooks (AJHL)
Ranking: 18 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-2 | Wt: 198 | Shot: R
Stats: 8 GP, 4 G, 7 A

How he fits: The Jackets went with forwards in their first two picks, so GM Jarmo Kekalainen completes his hat trick of first-round picks with a defenseman. Ceulemans plays strong in his own end, but he's also a strong skater and has an affinity for shooting the puck. He's headed to Wisconsin, which has developed a good defenseman or two. The Blue Jackets are fortunate that he was here; it's not often you see an NHL draft that goes 15 picks between defensemen being selected. -- Wyshynski


26. Minnesota Wild: Carson Lambos, D

Team: Winnipeg (WHL)
Ranking: 17 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-1 | Wt: 197 | Shot: L
Stats: 2 GP, 0 G, 0 A

How he fits: As long as the injury concerns have been alleviated, Lambos could be a fantastic pick here for GM Bill Guerin. He's a smooth-skating and puck-possessing player who can also run a power play. He has gotten Alex Pietrangelo comps, and that's hard to pass up for the Wild. -- Wyshynski


27. Nashville Predators: Zachary L'Heureux, LW

Team: Halifax (QMJHL)
Ranking: 30 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 5-11 | Wt: 196 | Shot: L
Stats: 33 GP, 19 G, 20 A

How he fits: The Predators traded up to this spot, sending the Nos. 40 and 51 picks to the Hurricanes. The guy they targeted is one of the single most divisive players in the first round. He hits. He fights. But he also has strong offensive chops to go along with his tenacious game. He has some Brad Marchand DNA in his game. Nice pick. -- Wyshynski


28. Colorado Avalanche: Oskar Olausson, RW

Team: HV71 (Sweden)
Ranking: 20 | Nationality: SWE
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-1 | Wt: 180 | Shot: L
Stats: 16 GP, 3 G, 1 A

How he fits: Olausson is a player with a big shot and solid puck control skills, but most importantly, he plays a 200-foot game. The Avalanche have some absolute blue-chippers at center and on defense, but they could use some more high-end talent on the wings in the pipeline. Some had Olausson going as high as No. 16, so this is a strong pick here for GM Joe Sakic. -- Wyshynski


29. New Jersey Devils: Chase Stillman, RW

Team: Sudbury (OHL)
Ranking: NR | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-1 | Wt: 180 | Shot: R

How he fits: The Devils make a reach here with some really talented forwards still available. But not many of them project to be the kind of power forward that Stillman could become. Outside of Nolan Foote, the Devils don't exactly have that kind of player in their prospect pool. It feels like they drafted for need here, which meant passing over some more intriguing options like Francesco Pinelli, Samu Tuomaala and wild card Aatu Raty. Stillman was the 35th-ranked North American skater by NHL Central Scouting. -- Wyshynski


30. Vegas Golden Knights: Zach Dean, C

Team: Gatineau (QMJHL)
Ranking: 33 | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-0 | Wt: 176 | Shot: L
Stats: 23 GP, 10 G, 10 A

How he fits: Whether it's on the main roster or in the Golden Knights' system, there's a dearth of centers for this franchise. It was assumed that's where the team would go here, and Dean fits the need. He has produced in the QMJHL but not at a mind-blowing level. His virtue is in the totality of his game, as a workhorse who is effective on both the power play and the penalty kill. There were a couple of other options here, but Dean projected to go right around the first-round bubble. -- Wyshynski


31. Montreal Canadiens: Logan Mailloux, D

Team: London (GOJHL)
Ranking: NR | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-3 | Wt: 212 | Shot: R

How he fits: The Canadiens selected a player who asked not to be selected, and they selected him in the first round. There's a morality problem here. Mailloux was playing on loan for SK Lejon, a third-tier team in Sweden, when he was fined by police for showing a photo to his teammates via Snapchat that depicted him and a woman engaged in a consensual sexual act -- a photo that was taken without her consent. The woman went to local police. Mailloux was not arrested but was charged with invasion of privacy and defamation. According to Daily Faceoff, which first reported the story, the fine amounted to $1,650.

Mailloux has been doing work away from the spotlight since the incident, beginning the process to earn a second chance in the 2022. But that process has just started. It isn't even guaranteed that he will return to play for the London Knights next season. For the Canadiens to select him in this draft is calculated and unsettling. There's a victim here who just saw her assailant still rewarded with a first-round selection despite unofficially pulling himself out of the draft.

But all that established ... Montreal had two picks in the second round. Another two in the third round. Another three in the fourth round. Mailloux was considered a lower first-round talent before his transgressions. His decision to recuse himself from the draft, and the reasons behind that decision, undoubtedly would have sent him plummeting down the board. Even if the Canadiens wanted to do the morally questionable thing and select Mailloux in this draft, to use a first-rounder to do so is logically indefensible. -- Wyshynski


32. Chicago Blackhawks: Nolan Allan, D

Team: Prince Albert (WHL)
Ranking: NR | Nationality: CAN
Age: 18 | Ht: 6-2 | Wt: 195 | Shot: L
Stats: 16 GP, 1 G, 1 A

How he fits: The final pick of the first round had the Blackhawks acquiring their second most-notable defenseman of the day. While Allan doesn't really project to be Seth Jones, especially as he's a raw talent in the offensive zone, he skates well enough to play in the NHL right now and can take care of business in his own end. Allan is a nice addition to the Chicago prospect pool. -- Wyshynski
