LGR4GM Posted April 10, 2019 Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 (edited) Peyton Krebs, C, Kootenay-WHL, https://theathletic.com/904724/2019/04/09/the-athletics-2019-nhl-mock-draft-lottery-edition-devils-get-the-no-1-pick/ Jan. 26, 2001 | 5-foot-11 | 181 pounds Eric Stephens: Once strong down the middle, the Ducks need help there. Ryan Getzlaf is on the back nine of his career and Ryan Kesler may be finished due to injuries. Adam Henrique is more of a shoot-first center best suited for a third-line role. Sam Steel is just beginning and looks like he can handle a top-six spot. And in a draft full of quality pivots at the top, it makes sense to grab the 5-foot-11, left-shooting, Kootenay Ice center. The 18-year-old fits the Ducks’ bill as a competitive playmaker who skates well and has a high hockey IQ. Anaheim can use centers that can pass the puck like Getzlaf does so well, particularly in his prime. Steel can dish the biscuit, and so can Krebs, whose 49 assists this season was nearly double the amount of his next closest teammate on a team that struggled all year. Pronman’s take: Krebs would bring a lot of dimensions to Anaheim, between his fantastic hockey sense, compete level and pace. In a system and organization full of young, talented forwards, he’d vault toward the top of the depth chart and play the game in a slightly different way than guys like Troy Terry, Max Jones or Steel. The write ups are taken from the Athletics post lottery mock draft. Edited April 10, 2019 by LGR4GM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted April 10, 2019 Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 Any Sean Monahan vibes here? Not in terms of style, but in terms of good player who might be a tad undervalued on draft day because of playing on a terrible team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he plays a similar style to Sean but is in a similar situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
