The San Jose Sharks, by virtue of finishing in last place and winning the lottery, are in line to select the talented forward, who turned 18 earlier this month. Most evaluators expect the Blackhawks, who hold the No. 2 pick, to take Michigan State defenseman Artyom Levshunov.
The Bruins did not have a pick until the fourth round entering the week, but managed to move into the first by shipping Linus Ullmark to Ottawa for a package that included the 25th selection.
The first 16 picks were determined by the lottery. Picks 17 through 28 went to teams that lost during the first two rounds of the playoffs, with teams that did not win their division in inverse order of regular-season point totals.
