James Hagens was picked seventh overall by the Boston Bruins in the 2025 NHL Draft, with the announcement made by actor Adam Sandler. Hagens, whose suit jacket showcased photos of family and his dog Oshie, created a memorable moment, blending personal sentiment with his professional achievement. He explained that the images represent important milestones in his life. Hagens, a Boston College centerman, became the second Eagle in three years drafted in the Top 10, following Ryan Leonard, who was selected eighth overall in 2023.
"So, I have a bunch of pictures of family and my dog in there too, we named him after TJ Oshie after the shootout goals against Russia, so Oshie's in there."
"A lot of meaningful pictures that kind of just represent a bunch of steps in your life."
