Round 6 Pick 157 – F Ryan Rupert
With the 157th overall pick in the 2012 NHL entry draft, the Toronto Maple Leafs selected forward Ryan Rupert from the London Knights.
Like the majority of modern-era London Knights, Rupert was very productive, scoring 194 points in 224 games.
The London (Ontario) native would join the Marlies in 2014, scoring 27 points in 57 games, and added 14 points in 17 ECHL games.
Rupert would disappoint slightly to start the 2015-16 season, scoring 12 points in 29 games. In February 2016, Rupert would be traded to the Ottawa Senators in a large nine-player deal.
Since the trade, Rupert would appear in 63 AHL games (19 points), 164 ECHL games (134 points), and 4 games in the British EIHL (no points).
Rupert currently sits a free agent at 25 years old.
