31. Ryan Johnson, Buf: Sioux Falls defenceman, the last pick in the first round at No. 31, gets family bragging rights by a slim margin. Dad Craig was selected No. 33 by St. Louis in 1990.

30. John Beecher, Bos: Bruins pick the 6-foot-3 centre - one of the best skaters in the draft - after getting lustily booed by the hometown Vancouver fans. Beecher is the 8th member of the USA U-18 team selected.

29. Brayden Tracey, Ana: Nobody rose like the Moose Jaw winger in rankings this season - moving up 52 places (73 to 21) from mid-season to end of season on the Central lists and from unranked to No. 36 on the TSN lists

28. Ryan Suzuki, Car: Tom Dundon declared the Hurricanes would not a pick a defenceman in the first round as long as he is owner. GM Don Waddell responded by selecting the slick playmaking Suzuki - who is the fifth straight Canadian selected.

27. Nolan Foote, TB: The Lightning organization now has a left Foote (Nolan) and a right Foote (Cal, 2017, No. 14). Nolan shoots left and Cal shoots right. BTW, Dad Adam was picked No. 22 in 1989 by Quebec.

26. Jakob Pelletier, Cgy: Even more impressive than his number of goals (39) in 2018-19 is the number of games he scored goals: 32 of 65 regular season games (49%).

25. Connor McMichael, Was: The centre represents the 5th straight year - starting with Mitch Marner (Toronto) in 2015 - a London Knight has been selected in the first round.

24. Philip Tomasino, Nas: Preds had chosen players from 7 different countries with their top picks in the past 7 drafts before finally doubling up by selecting the Canadian speedster. Home countries since 2012: Sweden, USA, Switzerland, Russia, Canada, Finland, Czech, Canada.

23. Simon Holmstrom, NYI: Islanders end the run on Euro defencemen, picking a Swedish right winger. The highest drafted Swedish forward in 2019 was also No. 23 (Isac Lundestrom by Anaheim).

22. Tobias Bjornfot, LA: The Kings choose Swedish defenceman Bjornfot - which means six of the 7 Euros chosen since Kakko No. 2 have been blueliners. Vasily Podkolzin is the only exception.

21. Samuel Poulin, Pit: On the 50th anniversary of the year Penguins' GM Jim Rutherford was selected 10th overall in the first Modern Draft (1969), he picks Poulin to end a 4-year run (2015-2018) when Pittsburgh didn't make a single first round pick.

20. Ville Heinola, Wpg: The Jets choose a defenceman in the first round for the first time since 2013 (Josh Morrissey), ending a streak of 5 straight forwards: 2014 Nik Ehlers 2015 Kyle Connor 2015 Jack Roslovic 2016 Patrik Laine 2017 Kristian Vesalainen.
