Matthew Schaefer, with Friday's decision by the New York Islanders, became the second Erie Otters chosen with the No. 1 overall pick in an NHL draft.

Following Connor McDavid, Matthew Schaefer becomes the second Erie Otter—and first OHL player since 2015—drafted first overall.

High-scoring forward Michael Misa went second overall to the San Jose Sharks, and the Chicago Blackhawks took Swedish forward Anton Frondell third at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles.
