Michigan State’s men’s ice hockey rarely gets any significant NHL Draft news. On the current roster, only Cole Krygier (Florida Panthers) and Christian Krygier (New York Islanders) have been drafted. However, incoming freshman Viktor Hurtig was drafted in the sixth-round of last year’s NHL Draft by the New Jersey Devils as well.
For context, MSU’s in-state rival, Michigan, had four players taken in the top-five of the 2021 draft.
Even the players on the current roster who have been drafted weren’t actually taken while with Michigan State.
