The Carolina Hurricanes have selected Russian goaltender Semyon Frolov with their first pick of the 2025 draft, 41st overall. The Canes traded back in the draft twice before finally settling on Frolov, a 6-foot-3 goaltender with strong MHL numbers. Carolina Hurricanes Associate General Manager Darren Yorke On 2025 NHL Draft Frolov, 18, had a 16-7-3 record last season with a 0.921 save percentage last season. He was ranked 92nd overall in THN's Top 100 prospects. "Big stopper plays with poise and has good athleticism. Put up solid numbers in junior, especially in the playoffs. Don’t be surprised if he gets KHL time soon." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 'We Feel Like We're In A Good Position': Carolina GM Eric Tulsky On Day 1 Of 2025 Draft [https://deweb-519a7.b-cdn.net/post-images/32de1b0b-89f5-44f9-8d5d-569f7a31108f.webp] 'We Feel Like We're In A Good Position': Carolina GM Eric Tulsky On Day 1 Of 2025 Draft Day 1 of the 2025 NHL Draft came and went (it took much longer than anyone would have liked) and the Carolina Hurricanes only move of the evening was to move down the draft, <a href="https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/carolina-hurricanes/latest-news/carolina-hurricanes-trade-out-of-first-round-again" target="_blank">trading their first-round selection</a> for two second-round picks and a 2027 fifth-round pick.
