The Florida Panthers draft plan is coming together.
A year after picking just outside of the top-10, the Panthers will occupy the 23rd overall selection this year and with it, the team knows one thing for sure: They will not select a goaltender, general manager Tom Rowe said Monday, according to Harvey Fialkov of the Sun Sentinel.
On top of that, Rowe will also enter the draft looking to select the best player available, whether that be a forward or a defenseman.
The club will take to the draft stage five times over the course of Friday and Saturday, with one selection in each of the first two rounds, two in the fourth, and one in the sixth.
