GREEN BAY - Two players with ties to the Gamblers were selected in the 2009 NHL Draft.

One is a member of last year's Anderson Cup championship team.
Defenseman Nick Jensen was on that 2008-09 squad.

The Detroit Red Wings drafted Jensen in the fifth round, 150th overall.

The New York Islanders took center Anders Lee, who according to the USHL.com, is on the Gamblers protected players list for the upcoming season.

Both players took part in the Gamblers tryout camp earlier in the month.

It remains unclear if they'll report to their NHL teams.
