## Resource

Three years ago, the Predators hosted the NHL Draft in Nashville, selecting a whopping 11 players. We revisit the 2023 Draft Class and just how well they've fared as Preds Prospects. Matthew Wood and Aiden Fink have been the stars of this class. Wood has become a roster regular, putting up 30 points in his first season, and Fink has been a seventh-round surprise as one of Penn State's best players. Tanner Molendyk and Austin Roest need improvement. Finally, are there any players that the Predators should have selected instead of whoe they've settled on?
