Jacob Dunbar went first overall to the Burnaby Lakers, 2022 captain Arthur Miller was selected by the Victoria Shamrocks and Evan Soucy stayed in the organization going third overall to the Senior A Timbermen.

Soucy said, "I'm very excited to be staying home and I can't wait to get back in the box this summer."

Two more Timbermen went in the second round 11th and 12th overall.

Aidan Danby, who joined the squad late in the season from Delta, was picked up Burnaby and former New West Junior Evan Pattison is staying with the Timbermen organization.
