Four teams have had four 1st-round picks in one draft:
  • NY Islanders, 1999: Tim Connolly (5), Taylor Pyatt (8), Branislav Mezei (10), Kristian Kudroc (28)
  • Colorado Avalanche, 1998: Alex Tanguay (12), Martin Skoula (17), Robyn Regehr (19), Scott Parker (20)
  • Montreal Canadiens, 1972: Stephen Shutt (4), Michel Larocque (6), Dave Gardner (8), John Van Boxmeer (14)
  • Boston Bruins, 1970: Reginald Leach (3), Richard Macleish (4), Ronald Plumb (9), Robert Stewart (13)

The 1974 Montreal Canadiens hold the record with five:

Cam Connor (5), Doug Risebrough (7), Rick Chatraw (10), Mario Tremblay (12), Gord McTavish (15).
