GDT: 2023 Caps NHL Draft Thread

[HeyMattyB]

I have not been this nervous/excited for a Caps draft in a looong time. It's excruciating! (lol)

 

[Langway]

Finally.

 

[Holtbyisms]

Prepared for Reinbacher or Dvorsky but hoping for the best.

 

[Kalopsia]

My money's on Dvorsky, and I think a lot of people in this thread would end up eating crow on him. Crossing my fingers for Michkov though.

 

[John Price]

Boo

 

[g00n]

Why do people still boo Bettman? I understood it and did it after the lockout. But that was like 20 f***ing years ago. Get over it.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Let’s just get this sh*t over with.

 

[StrikingDistance]

Is there a way to trade our #8 pick for Jeff Schultz and extend Kuzy and Mantha indefinitely?

 

[RedRocking]

Bedard looks like the bully in a HS movie. Plus he’s rocking the 90’s middle part hair. Supercool guy.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

Someone give Poile a sedative, stat.

 

[g00n]

oh shit that is a sweet looking les paul

 

[kicksavedave]

Bettman is approaching Grandpa from the Adams Family in appearance.

 

[Brian23]

Man, he is such a nerd. lmao

 

[Holtbyisms]

Nobody gives a f*** about Nashville or David Poole. Put Chicago on the clock.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Have to watch my my iPhone at work

 

[g00n]

Is Al Jourgensen there for Chicago?

 

[kicksavedave]

If Chicago takes more than 25 seconds to make this pick I'll be pissed.

 

[John Price]

Vegas getting booed?

 

[Random schmoe]

ESPN feed is about 30 seconds behind 'live' responses. Thats... annoying.

 

[Acallabeth]

He's barely taller than Bettman lol

 

[g00n]

please don't post tweet spoilers

 

[MileHighCapsFan]

oh shit that is a sweet looking les paul

Wouldn't be surprised if its a Custom... but color says its not a 50's. They went low.

 

[RandyHolt]

5'10 suuuuure

 

[StrikingDistance]

Bedard is 5'9????
