Colorado College incoming freshman Wilson Björck was selected by the Vancouver Canucks in the fifth round of the 2025 National Hockey League (NHL) Draft Saturday in Los Angeles, Calif. 
 
Björck, a forward from Stockholm, Sweden, had 91 points (37g,54a) in 84 games with Djurgardens IF in Sweden the last two seasons and played for his home country in the 2023 Hlinka Cup.
 
"Congratulations to Wilson on his selection in the NHL Draft by the Vancouver Canucks," Colorado College head coach Kris Mayotte said. "He had a tremendous year is Sweden and we are excited to help further his development over the next few seasons. Wilson is a highly skilled and competitive forward who is comfortable playing any of the three forward positions. Our staff is excited to help him achieve his goal of playing in the NHL." 

He is the highest draft pick from Colorado College since then-incoming freshman Noah Laba was a fourth-round selection by the New York Rangers in 2022.
 
Björck, the 143^rd overall selection, is the 91^st player in CC history to be drafted by the NHL since 1969.
