The Ducks selected center Logan MacMillan of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada with the 19th pick in the first round of the NHL Entry Draft at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
The 6-1, 172-pound MacMillan turns 18 on July 5 and played for Halifax of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League last season. MacMillan had 55 points (20 goals and 35 assists) in 68 games with Halifax this season, including 38 in the last 35 games. He was ranked No. 42 in the Central Scouting Service's final ranking of North American Skaters.
Anaheim had owned the 16th pick in the Draft, since they traded defenseman Shane O\'Brien and a 3rd-round pick in this year's Draft to Tampa Bay for goalie Gerald Coleman and Tampa Bay's 1st-round pick on Feb. 24, 2007. But just before making the 16th selection, Anaheim traded it to Minnesota for the 19th and 42nd selections in this year's Draft.
