After an exciting 2022 NHL Entry Draft, which saw Cutter Gauthier going 5th overall, Eagles fans should be preparing for another big draft in 2023. BC should have a number of players picked early on, as well as some recruits picked in later rounds.
The first future draft pick we’ll be profiling is Drew Fortescue. A 6’3 defenseman out of the USNTDP, Fortescue is projected to be picked somewhere in the late 70s/early 80s, making him a mid-third round pick.
Fortescue has spent the past 2 seasons playing with the USNTDP, establishing himself as a defensive defenseman who can also set up scoring plays when needed.
