The 2023 NHL Draft will take place at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, TN, this evening and every team around the league is prepping for the night. That includes the New York Rangers, who own the No. 23 pick in the first round.
Their social team took to Twitter this afternoon to simply share pictures of them getting their table ready for the draft. The problem? They accidentally doxxed themselves and leaked their own phone number. Yikes!
anyone else remember when the official new york rangers account doxxed their own telephone line at the draft and then had to delete the post? because it happened 10 minutes ago

Ah man, that poor social media manager. One can only imagine the look of terror on their face when they realized what they had done. And before you get any ideas, they’ve already disconnected the number. So no, you will not be able to crank call the Rangers tonight while they are making important decisions about their future.
New York will have plenty of time to put their new number to use before making their selection. ESPN’s Kevin Weekes has projected them to take defenseman Oliver Bonk out of London with the pick.
