Connor Bedard selected 1st overall by Chicago Blackhawks, Leo Carlsson to the Ducks and Adam Fantilli to Blue Jackets round out the top 3

Max and Corey breakdown the first round of the 2023 NHL draft from the floor in Nashville, minutes after the first round was completed. The guys discuss what Connor Bedard will bring to Chicago, Anaheim's decision to draft Leo Carlsson over Adam Fantilli who fell to the third slot and the Columbus Blue Jackets and the risky decision by the Flyers to draft Matvei Michkov who still has three years remaining on his NHL contract. Plus, Max and Corey lament the lack of trades during day one of the draft and look ahead to a busy day two on Thursday at the draft in Nashville.
