Arizona Coyotes get sixth overall, secure Ottawa's pick in NHL Draft
Once again, the Arizona Coyotes did not receive the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, but will be guaranteed two selections in the first round.
The Coyotes ended up with the No. 6 overall pick after the order of selection for lottery teams, 16 in total, was revealed Monday night at the NHL Network studios in New Jersey. The Coyotes have yet to move up in the lottery after finishing with the sixth-worst point total in the league’s regular season.
