Order set for all seven rounds of the 2023 NHL Draft

With the conclusion of the Stanley Cup final, we know how the selection order will play out at the 2023 NHL Draft.

The Montreal Canadiens, using a pick obtained from the Florida Panthers in 2022, will pick 31st, while the Stanley Cup champions, Vegas Golden Knights, will select 32nd. As a result, for rounds where the two teams have their own picks, Florida will have the second last pick in every round, while Vegas will draft with the last pick.

Florida has picks in the second, fourth, fifth and sixth round, as well as Arizona’s seventh-rounder. Vegas has a pick in the first, two picks in the third round (including Buffalo’s) and picks in the sixth and seventh rounds.

The Chicago Blackhawks hold the first overall pick, with Anaheim, Columbus, San Jose and Montreal rounding out the top five. Arizona, Philadelphia, Washington, Detroit and St. Louis finish off the top 10 based on the NHL’s draft lottery last month.

Connor Bedard is expected to be taken first overall by the Blackhawks. Described as a generational player, many scouts have compared Bedard to the likes of Connor McDavid, Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner and Patrick Kane, making him one of the best prospects in years.
