Drafted in the fifth round of the 2020 NHL Draft, ESPN tabbed LA Kings’ Martin Chromiak as a best value pick.

As one of the more underrated players in the 2020 NHL Draft, the LA Kings may have uncovered a hidden gem in fifth-round pick Martin Chromiak. The Ilava, Slovakia native stands at 6-foot-0, 181 pounds. He scored 5 goals with 1 assist for 6 points in 32 games for HK Dukla Trencin before transitioning to North America last year, playing for the Kingston Frontenacs of the OHL.

In approximately half a season, Chromiak scored 11 goals with 22 assists in 28 games.
