When the Boston Bruins landed the seventh pick in the 2025 NHL Draft Lottery, little did general manager Don Sweeney and the Boston scouts know what was going to happen when it came time for the draft.
Despite picking seventh, the Black and Gold, who haven't had many first-round picks in recent years, had the one player who many saw as the top overall pick fall to them at No. 7. When it was time to make the pick, Sweeney wasted little time in selecting the Boston College forward.
Hagens recently played well for Team USA at the World Junior Championship and is back to continue his season at BC.
