Will the number 28 bring good luck to the Toronto Maple Leafs at the NHL draft?
The Toronto Maple Leafs currently hold the 28th overall pick in the NHL draft. The first round of the draft will take place on June 28th.
With the Leafs replacing Kyle Dubas with Brad Treliving as general manager, the thought process for the NHL draft is different.
I’m sure Treliving will want to select the best player available, like most GMs, but he does tend to draft bigger players compared to Dubas.
That’s not to say that Dubas never drafted big players, but most of his selections were in the 5’10 height range.
