Here’s our stab at a mock draft of the first round of the 2023 NHL Draft. Which player did we select for the Colorado Avalanche? Who will correctly guess the most picks? Follow along and find out when the first round kicks off on Wednesday, June 28th at 5 p.m. MT.
1. Chicago - Jackie - C Connor Bedard
The easiest pick in the draft as Bedard kickstarts the rebuild in the Windy City.
2. Anaheim - Luke - C Adam Fantilli
Having a 1-2-3 center-depth punch between McTavish, Fantilli, and Zegras is just mean, nasty, and very unfair.
