The Athletic NHL Mock Draft 2023: Pronman and Wheeler Predict the First Two Rounds

[Phil]

The Rangers have drafted wingers with their last five top picks. They go for a natural center here and take Ritchie, a committed two-way player with skill and size.

I'm looking for Matthew Wood, Ethan Gauthier, or Jayden Perron.

Did they mention leadership ability? Did he throw a silver medal? Or a helmet, for that matter?
