Ducks general manager Pat Verbeek speaks to the media after the first round of the 2024 NHL Draft

[@mijorebic]

Thank you for your coverage. All the best!

Verbeek is either going to look like a genius or an idiot. We will have to see in 5 years.

Thank you Derek

im 100 percent sure they know what they are doing, he looks small to me, they must think someone else was picking him soon. it seems trading back makes sense, same with washington and nashville. watch all three workout for all 3, its hockey lol

PSA ought to have their employees from Santa Ana boycott Ducks games for having a guy named Beckett brought aboard on their team.

[@jesusg.7428]

Great work, thanks. I'm still questioning his first pick last year.

[@bapjap]

With Carlsson? He will be a better player than Fantilli (he’s better than him now arguably)

[@jesusg.7428]

@@bapjap Before Fantilli got injured, he was putting up better numbers than Leo. And yes, Carlsson was an a limited games play schedule.

[@brAnd7onX87]

@@jesusg.7428 Leo is a more rounded player. Fantilli has defensive issues that need a lot of work. Both players are great in their own respective rights and I don't think Leo was a gamble at all and is a safer choice in my opinion. Next Barkov/Kopitar potential.
