Prospect Info: Is it too soon to discuss the 2021 draft?

If LA wins the lottery, does that mean there is no lottery potential for the next year?

I think next year will start everyone's 5 year cycle, but I could be wrong.

If the Kings win the lottery trade the pick for a 1st line winger

They may be able to get a pretty good 1st line player, but it's not going to be some of the pie in the sky suggestions that have been mentioned here like Panarin, Kucherov and Pasta.

Power also would fill an organizational need that exists because Blake drafts almost all centers with his best picks. If the Kings won the lottery it would make more sense to move one or two of the centers than the potential #1 d-man.

Yup, the new wrinkle with the '2 wins in a 5 year period' starts with a clean slate for everybody next season. It'll be interesting to see if John Wroblewski has any additional input on Chaz Lucius who missed a chunk of time due to injury. Lucius had a good 2019-20 with Wroblewski behind the bench. Maybe not a need pick, but the Kings could end up dangling other guys for trade.

I already hate him based off of his name. Chaz Lucius? Woof. Sounds like a yuppie from the 80’s.

Pretty sure his parents bought the rec center to turn into an office building. Where will us kids hang out after school?

Wasn't that the plot of Breakin'2 Electric Boogaloo?

There is only one Chaz who should don skates!

Needs the Jean Claude van Damme cameo.

Is it too late to discuss the 2021 draft???

 

[Reclamation Project]

I think the better question is - is it too soon to discuss the 2022 draft?
