With regards to drafting goalies, it's interesting to note that this will be the 10th straight season in which the Stanley Cup winning goalie was playing for the team that drafted him.
This is the first time that the two starting goalies in the Finals are first round picks playing for the teams that drafted them. It's also only the second time that both goalies in the Final were first round picks (2003 -- Giguere vs. Brodeur -- was the first).
2021 is also the first time that the starting goalies for each of the four semifinalists were first round picks.
