If the Ducks do pick Levshunov that would give them two high end, young RD's with him and Tristan Luneau and two high end, young LD's with Pavel Mintyukov and Owen Zellweger. With their young Forwards in Carlsson, McTavish, Gauthier and Zegras along with Terry (young-ish) that's a very, very good young core to move forward with.
I am biased as a norwegian, but Brandsegg-Nygård is a much better player than people give him credit for. Very good WJC and WC for two bad Norwegian National Teams. Stian Solberg should also be a first rounder. Both will play in two of the top teams in SHL this season, and i think they will be NHL ready in 2 or 3 years.
If Catton falls to Philly he compliments their rush offense and if he plays with mitchkov that could just be so fun. Catton is similar size to Giroux and giroux is still a great center so if they get Catton that would be great
also, i keep wondering why ppl aren't calling this class one of the better classes of the past few years, everyone keeps saying it's average, but when berkley catton it NOT considered a top 10 pick then i think that's probably a pretty good class
Columbus has Kent Johnson as there would be #2 Center. He had a not so great year last year but he’s definitely got the talent to be a very good player
It wasn't a mock draft! It was a projection list! He projects those players to have the most success in that order. Theres a big difference between a mock draft and a projection list.
