Nashville Predators 2023 NHL Draft Board 3.0: First Round Targets

We’re just two days away from the 2023 NHL Entry Draft as the host Nashville Predators hold 13 picks and coming fresh off the heels of trading away Ryan Johansen on Saturday.

Much speculation has been made about whether or not the Predators will be big movers in the draft, and even try to push their way into as high up as the top-5, which is stacked with generational talent.

If the Predators hold serve at picks No.15 and No.24, there will be plenty of outstanding talent available on the board. It’s the beauty of this 2023 draft class and relieves some pressure of feeling the urge to trade up into a higher draft position and risk making a horrendous choice.
