FIRST ROUND (18TH OVERALL)

* Mikael Holmqvist, center

Djurgarden (Sweden)

* Age: 18

* Height: 6-3

* Weight: 189

Superb skater with creative offensive skills to match. He has the potential to fill an enforcer role but hasn’t proved he can play the physical game required of someone his size. The Ducks don’t expect him to play in Anaheim for two to three seasons.

SECOND ROUND (45TH OVERALL)

* Maxim Balmochnykh, left wing

Lada Togliatti (Russia)

* Age: 18

* Height: 6-0

* Weight: 185

Exciting skater, good puckhandler, strong defensively, has a hard shot and makes smart passes. He missed several weeks of the season to have surgery to correct an irregular heartbeat.

THIRD ROUND (72ND OVERALL)

* Jay Legault, left wing

London (Ontario Hockey League)

* Age: 18

* Height: 6-4

* Weight: 192

Was ranked as the 48th-best skater by the Central Scouting Service going into the draft. He has the skills, but isn’t as polished as many would have expected.
