With their first selection on day two of the 2018 NHL Draft (42nd-overall), the Carolina Hurricanes selected American center Jack Drury.
The Winnetka, Illinois native played in the USHL for the Waterloo Black Hawks last season. As their team captain, he tallied 65 points in 56 games. He is committed to play collegiate hockey at Harvard next year.
He comes from a line of hockey lineage. His father, Ted Drury, was a long-time center in the NHL, and his uncle, Chris Drury, logged north of 600 points over his 892-game NHL career.
