"It was super exciting," Thrun said, on hearing his named called by Anaheim. "Celebrate it with my family and friends. To go through that was pretty special for me."

Thrun joins former NTDP U-18 teammate (and close friend) Trevor Zegras on the Ducks. "Trev and I are good buddies," Thrun said. "We've known each other since we were little kids. We've always been competitors. It's going to be cool to be teammates down the road."

VANCOUVER -- Even after a good night's sleep, Brayden Tracey is still trying to process the emotions he felt when he heard his name called by the Ducks at Rogers Arena yesterday. They selected him with the 29th overall pick, capping off a night that saw the club take Trevor Zegras earlier in the first round.

VANCOUVER -- With the 39th overall pick in the 2019 NHL Draft, the Ducks select defenseman Jackson Lacombe from Shattuck St. Mary's (High-MN).

Tracey's 81 points were 19 more than the next closest WHL rookie.

"I can't describe it," Tracey said. "Something special having my family there. It's really emotional. I play with a big heart. I have a big chip on my shoulder, and I can produce offensively."

VANCOUVER -- Gary Zegras patiently sat in his chair inside Rogers Arena, waiting and wondering when he'd hear his son's name announced on stage at the 2019 NHL Draft.

One thing was a given - son Trevor was going to be selected in the first round. But where, exactly, was a bit of an unknown. Zegras was the sixth-ranked North American skater in Central Scouting's final rankings, and was projected to go early in the opening round.
