2025 NHL Draft Shockers: Islanders’ Surprising No. 1 Pick Matthew Schaefer Sparks Debate and Drama
Lee is a little on the smaller side, but his production for the Madison Capitals was not. Last season, Lee posted 68 points, which were fourth-most in the USHL. With 31 goals and 37 assists, Lee showed he could score and distribute. Lee will have a couple of months to add some weight as he works toward the NHL level.
27. Washington Capitals — Lynden Lakovic, LW, Moose Jaw (WHL)
Lakovic possesses tremendous size at 6-foot-4 and really uses his frame to his advantage. Lakovic’s shot is arguably the top asset of his game and is a player that doesn’t need a ton of space to get off that shot. That was evident this past season as he registered 58 points (27 goals & 31 assists) in 47 games with the WHL’s Moose Jaw Warriors. He’s also a very underrated playmaker and has a high level hockey IQ. Lakovic likely projects as a middle-six forward at the NHL level, but his playmaking ability leaves a ton of room for growth as he joins the Capitals system.
