With the 33rd overall pick, the Canucks selected center Brooks Rogowski from the Oshawa Generals.

The six-foot-seven forward recorded 15 goals and 42 points in 46 games last season.

"His skating is good for his size, and he certainly knows how to use his big frame in board battles and to protect the puck," said NHL scout Adam Kimelman.

Eight picks later, at 41st overall, Vancouver drafted Norwegian left-winger Niklas Aaram-Olsen.
