For the second year in a row, the Prince Albert Raiders have had a player selected in the opening round of the NHL Draft.
With the final pick of Friday’s first round, the Chicago Blackhawks used the 32nd selection to take blueliner Nolan Allan.
The 18-year-old from Davidson had been projected by many to be picked between the late second round and early fourth round of Saturday’s portion of the draft.
