I actually looked this up recently. The only other time it has happened was the 2003 Final when 1995's 13th overall pick, J.S. Giguere faced 1990's 20th overall, Martin Brodeur.
2021 was also the first time that the starting goalies for all 4 teams in game one of the semi-final were first round picks.
