It was one of the deepest drafts in recent memory, and the Delta Sturgeon took full advantage at the 2014 Rookie Draft. With the first overall pick, the Sturgeon chose phenom Nathan MacKinnon, then followed it with Nikita Kucherov at 10th, John Gibson at 21st, and Cody Ceci at 30th.
By contrast, it was a quiet day for trades, with most teams opting to hold on to their picks. The only move was a late round swap between Salem and Vancouver.
