Confirmed with Link: LEAFS WIN #1 PICK IN 2026 NHL DRAFT

  • If you are having issues logging in, we have found opening the log in page in a new tab/window rather than using the pop out should resolve these issues. We are working to get this resolved and thank you for patience.
  • Due to the increased volume of league transactions, the Trade Rumors and Free Agent Talk section is temporarily restricted to where threads may only be started by moderators and sponsors. We anticipate that this restriction will be lifted some time after the first round of the draft.

Gavin for us. Would be a huge mistake to not go BPA for SJ and Van. Reid isn’t a top pick guy. Verhoeff is who I’d take if I was dead set on a D but Malhotra will be a huge reach/mistake for Van

He was indeed there.
 
the concerning thing about the Leafs picking McKenna is that the last time the Leafs developed a defenceman into an NHL regular was when they drafted Morgan Rielly in 2012. IT'S BEEN 14 YEARS.

Obviously you still go for the best option available, but it is an interesting caveat. We will wait and see. Or is it we can and we will. Idek anymore.
