The National Hockey League hosted the 2007 Entry Draft in Columbus, Ohio on June 21st and 22nd and the Niagara IceDogs made their presence felt with 3 players chosen within the first four rounds.

Leading the charge was forward Stefan Legein in being selected with the 37th overall pick by the host Columbus Blue Jackets. Legein had a tremendous draft year in which he set career highs in all offensive categories and represented the IceDogs at the OHL All-Star game. Recently named to Team Canada's roster for the upcoming Super Series versus Russia, Legein was also a late invitee to the 2007 CHL Top Prospects game in January and fully utilised the opportunity to help showcase his talents and boost his stock leading up to the NHL Draft.

Following shortly in Legein's footsteps was IceDogs defenceman Drew Schiestel, chosen with the 59th overall pick by the Buffalo Sabres. Schiestel was one of the most improved IceDogs throughout the 2006-07 campaign and capped off his sophmore season with a strong playoff series versus Sudbury that included 4-assists and a first-star selection in Game 2 and a total of 6 points in 5 games.

Rounding out the IceDogs selections was power forward Luca Caputi, chosen in the 4th round (111th overall) by the Pittsburgh Penguins. Having dealt with various injuries during his first 2 years in the OHL, Luca took full advantage of his first healthy season by shattering all previous career marks with 27 goals, 38 assists, and 65 points.
