The Pittsburgh Penguins selected 18-year old center Brayden Yager from Moose Jaw of the Western Hockey League with the 14th selection in the First Round of the NHL draft in Nashville last night. Yager has scored 62 goals and added 75 assists in his two seasons there. He was the league’s Rookie of the Year in 2022.
As expected, the Chicago Blackhawks took Connor Bedard with the first overall pick of the draft. The selections resume in Nashville this morning. The Penguins have four more selections.
