GDT: 2023 Upper Deck NHL Draft: 1st Round, June 28, 7 p.m. et | ESPN, SN, TVAS: Nashville, TN

[Natey]

Can we trade Anderson + Flames 1st and get another 1st this year? Please? Come on Hughes

 

[Justin11]

I guess the Yotes pick players that won’t demand high salaries.

 

[Wats]

Michkov going to Caps feels rigged.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Holy shit! Even Simashev is shocked. Lmao

 

[CheldishGamibno]

Hahahaha loving it

 

[Belial]

Wow Simashev at 6 geez!!!

 

[sampollock]

How far does Michkov fall?

 

[donghabs98]

If only the panthers gave us another top 10 pick...

 

[Kaiden Ghoul]

Jesus Christ

Reinbacher and Newhook

F Moulson, Screw him, if we had someone like Gilette, they would have say your better pick me Michkov. We Will never have thoae kind of player until hes gone, now watch him want his playoff money

 

[HabsEstrie]

Tank for Reinbacher

 

[Gainesvillain]

Wow...Yotes really wanted a D at all costs

 

[Picaroon]

So why make a move to accelerate the rebuild by acquiring newhook and then select a dman that will take 3+ years to make an impact?

 

[Sanz4]

i dunno, but Montreal could just pick Willander as theyre both have same potential. Willander isnt even seen as the best 05 defender in his country btw

 

[Kiss Under the Guy]

I remember being unhappy with last year's draft (and trades), but in retrospect, I think it was the best-case scenario. Let's hope it's the same thing again

 

[Natey]

Makes a lot more sense why we didn't trade back. Maybe Hughes knew they were looking at D.

 

[MON4NHLTOR4MLB]

Newhook and Reinbacher when we could’ve had Leonard/Michkov and Bonk/Dragecevic. I hope fans and media rip them to shreds for these moves. Should’ve hired Briere

 

[rahad]

Great washington is getting a elite forward...

 

[Redux91]

Wow Zona wanted Reinbacher BAD then lmao

 

[Naslundforever]

2 years in a row we shit the bed, f*** HuGo

Should have gone for simachev for sure

 

[TT1]

holy shit they pick another Russian over Michkov

i guess that's why we couldn't trade the pick behind Arizona

 

[Gillings]

That was too much pressure even for Pricer

Hahaha the look in Hughes face before they went up to the floor…. Oops… I didn’t pick the right guy.

Michkov told teams he wasn’t coming.

 

[sansabri]

Michkov prob told teams he wasn't coming over and told the Caps he'll be there this season

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

We could have had the Flyets 7th and 22nd, Hughes you dumb ass egghead

He would have been gone at 6th.

 

[morhilane]

Bouahahah, Michkov is not even the first Russian taken.

 

[FLHabs]

That's why you trade back if you're going to pick Reinbacher ffs...
