Our Anaheim Ducks Monthly Mailbag, June 2018: Power Play, Star Rookies, and RK17

Here are our last two mailbags: May 2018, April 2018.

Question 1) I think the Ducks blew it on Isac Lundestrom, there were so many better players available to draft. What do you think?

Kenny Marcial: Despite the desire to draft certain players, our scouts do diligent work in making their picks. The Ducks picked 23rd and Lundestrom was the 20th rated prospect on Bob McKenzie’s list. Veleno and Bokk were the only two players left with higher rankings. Lundestrom is the best possible prospect for that pick. He played in the Swedish Elite League and had a consistent role in the WJC, which is very uncommon for a 17-year-old.
