Here's Every 1st Round Pick From The 2021 NHL Entry Draft

 

It was a very eventful start to the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. Before it began, there were a lot of significant trades that led to teams trading their first-round picks away in blockbuster deals. The two big ones that come to mind are the Seth Jones trade and the Canucks-Coyotes blockbuster. Teams like the Detroit Red Wings and Minnesota Wild also moved to be higher in the draft to get their preferred players, too. Lastly, the Montreal Canadiens also made a very controversial decision with their pick.

With this draft class being such a wildcard, it also saw many players end up going earlier or later than once expected. This, in turn, made it a very entertaining draft to watch.
