VANCOUVER, B.C. – The first round of the 2019 NHL Draft took place at Rogers Arena on Friday evening and Boston University commit Trevor Zegras was selected ninth overall by the Anaheim Ducks.
This marked the fifth straight year that a BU player or commit was selected in the opening round with an impressive total of 10 first-rounders during the span.
Zegras, a 6-0, 173-pound center, tallied 87 points (26g, 61a) this past season for the U.S. National Under-18 Team. He totaled 100 assists in 116 career contests with the National Team Development Program, which is the fourth-most in program history. Zegras signed a National Letter of Intent to play at BU back in November.
At this year's U-18 World Championship, Zegras was second among all skaters in the tournament in assists with nine and earned a bronze medal with the U.S. squad. He helped Team USA capture gold at the World U-17 Hockey Challenge in 2017 with six points (2g, 4a) in six games.
