Confirmed Trade: 2023 draft trades only involving draft picks

[Play]

Hilarious thread. But has this happened before? No single deal?

First time in league history

funny seeing ppl clowning on this thread like there arent 6 more rounds left tomorrow that it will be used for

I'm so looking forward to read this thread again when teams are swapping their 5th and 6th round picks.

Funny thing is you don’t have to read this thread. No one is forcing you to check in to see 5ths and 6ths being swapped around. Crazy concept I know

I guess I will check if there is a bump and then decide what I will do next but thx for the advice. I'll try to remember that for other threads.

I think the Hayes, RyJo, Smith, and Toffoli were indicating GMs value cap more than players so not surprising they would not trade their 1st rounders. That being said, I am surprised STL did not try to make a move and Debrincat was not even bringing back a 1st this year…

Can't be 2007; Blues traded down from #9 to 13 with San Jose (where they picked Logan Couture), and we picked Lars Eller. Then we traded up for Ian Cole. Seravalli has to be wrong on this.

And this was during the draft. I clearly remember it because it was the only good thing about my team back then.

Epic thread.

Just waiting for Bettman to chime in "with the first fail of the 2023 nhl draft...."

Some great trades here

Seems a bit of nonsense when you could double your chances potentially if you feel draft is that deep

For instance, Kyle Davidson and Hawks had 4 2nd round picks as trade chips

Surely say #28 for #44 and #55 would have been smart for GM or even moving down to #35 + one of the two 3rd's the Hawks have.

We shall see but the Leafs who I thought would trade down reached for a guy slated in almost every ranking as a late 2nd/3rd round pick

It was what it was. No trades were made and the Sportsnet people were making a suggestion as to why. There were a few strange picks in that first round. Arizona's draft list must have been written up while they were partying at that honky tonk everyone was at.

Last night was so boring.

...Michkov fell to #7 to Philly...

That was boring for you as a Flyers fan (presumably)?

First time in league history

First time since 2007 - as per nhl.com
Entering the night, expectations were high that there would be lots of trades during the first round and once the dust settled, not one deal was made. It's the first time since 2007 that no trades were made during round one an NHL Draft.

Again, 2007 had trades during the first round: the Blues both traded down with the Sharks for Lars Eller and up for Ian Cole.

That pick will likely be in the 33 40 range, nice haul for CHI !

It was announced from the stage as LA's #2 next year, previously acquired by Philly.

[WarriorofTime]

No way that's the Flyers own pick right?
