GDT: 2023 Caps NHL Draft Thread

[marcel snapshot]

the Hawks brass on the podium seemed surprised by his, uh, diminutiveness.

 

[Langway]

Making the team. What a Canadian.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

I’ve always wondered why there is so much more movement in the NBA and NFL drafts while movement in the NHL draft seems to be so damn hard to make happen.

 

[John Price]

TIL there is a will smith in hockey

 

[Brian23]

wuuuut. Already going off board?

 

[Acallabeth]

Oh it's getting good already

 

[kicksavedave]

PAt Verbeek looks like Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys

 

[AlexModvechkin8]

Anaheim wanted the Swede.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

Whoa Ducks surprise with the Swede.

 

[pman25]

Madness, chaos!

 

[ynotcaps]

Wow. That's the one name I hadn't heard at #2.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Verbeek….too many shots to the head?

 

[Langway]

Good for Columbus.

 

[MileHighCapsFan]

Wow.

 

[Kalopsia]

Aw man, Leo to Anaheim. As a Michigan alum, seeing Fantilli drop to Columbus is physically painful.

 

[Holtbyisms]

CBJ should be ecstatic.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

Complete sweepstakes out here tonight.

 

[Devil Dancer]

Is Fantilli going to give the Ducks the Wright death stare?

 

[RedRocking]

Fantilli to the Metro then - surprise

 

[WcRoenick97]

Anaheim just drafted Eric Matthews from Boy Meets World.

Carlsson looks like he could be a Mats Sundin type.

Oh man, a Swede admiring Crosby over Nicky. I dunno

 

[ynotcaps]

Bucci: "Anaheim with three second round picks, as well..." The "which they will also likely f*** up" was silent.

 

[ClevelandCapsfan]

Will Columbus surprise and really shake things up? Don’t assume Fantilli.

 

[Random schmoe]

Tons of credit to a kid with a stutter for seeming so comfortable talking, especially in a non-native language.

 

[twabby]

Hold onto your butts…it gets interesting from here
