A franchise record will be broken by the Tampa Bay Lightning if nothing changes before the 2023 NHL Draft takes place June 28-29.
With only three draft picks in their possession, Tampa Bay will set a new low for players drafted in a given year. The current mark, set in 2006, saw the Lightning draft 4 players.
With only three picks, this figures to be a low-key year for the Lightning. Luckily, for our convenience, all three picks are slated happen late in the final two rounds. So, you could tune in late Day 2 and catch the 3 newest members of the Lightning organization get draft.
