The Coyotes didn't add any immediate help via a trade during the second day of the 2014 NHL draft, but they banked eight more prospects at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia during Rounds 2-7.

After selecting left winger Brendan Perlini Friday with their first pick at 12th overall, the Coyotes drafted six more forwards and a pair of defensemen Saturday and seemed to be targeting players with size.

They took center Ryan MacInnis in the second round with the 43rd pick. The 6-foot-3, 185-pound MacInnis scored 16 goals and 37 points in 66 games with Kitchener (Ontario Hockey League) last season.

He's the son of Hall-of-Fame defenseman Al MacInnis, a seven-time All-Star and Stanley Cup champion during his 23-season career with the Blues and Flames known for his booming shot.

"It's not as good as his but maybe one day," MacInnis said. "He taught me how to shoot. He just says shoot, practice a lot, shoot a lot."

With the 58th pick in the second round, which was acquired from Chicago in a trade that sent defenseman David Rundblad to the Blackhawks before the trade deadline, the Coyotes grabbed left winger Christian Dvorak. The 6-foot, 192-pound Dvorak had his regular season cut short after tearing his ACL but put up six goals and 14 points in 33 games.

"Obviously, it's an unbelievable feeling – something I've worked my whole life for," Dvorak said. "A dream come true. It's an honor being drafted by Arizona."

In the third round, the Coyotes traded their 73rd selection to the Montreal Canadiens to acquire picks 87 and 117, giving the Coyotes a selection in the fourth round which they did not previously have. At 87, the Coyotes scooped up right winger Anton Karlsson. The 6-foot, 181-pound Swedish forward had 12 goals and 22 points in 28 games with Frolunda's U-20 team.

"I didn't expect that Phoenix was going to get me because I only talked to them maybe five minutes (at the combine)," Karlsson said. "But I'm happy to be chosen."

In Round 4, the Coyotes took left winger Michael Bunting, who scored 15 goals and 42 points in 48 games with Sault Ste. Marie of the OHL. Bunting is 5-foot-11 and 174 pounds.

The Coyotes selected a defenseman, Dysin Mayo, at 133 in Round 5. The 6-foot, 181-pound blue liner had seven goals and 35 points in 63 games with Edmonton in the Western Hockey League.

They added another defenseman in the next round at 163 when they took David Westlund. The 6-foot-2, 198-pound native of Sweden tallied five goals and 10 points in 33 games with Brynas last season.

The Coyotes had a pair of picks in the seventh and final round. The 191st pick came from New Jersey as part of a trade that sent winger Steve Sullivan to the Devils during the 2013 season.

With that selection, the Coyotes drafted left winger Jared Fiegl. The 6-foot-1, 206-pound forward had a goal and five points in 37 games with the USA U-18 team last season, winning a gold medal with Team USA at the 2014 IIHF U-18 World Championship.

And with their last pick at 193, the Coyotes added left winger Edgars Kulda, who also plays with the Oil Kings. The Latvia native, at 6-foot and 178 pounds, amassed 30 goals and 60 points in 66 games in Edmonton last season and nabbed the Memorial Cup MVP title with four goals in five games.

Scottsdale native Austin Carroll was taken 184th overall by the Calgary Flames.

These prospects will descend on the Valley July 8-10 for the team's annual development camp at the Ice Den. All on-ice session will be 2:15-3:45 p.m. and are free and open to the public.
