Commentary

The Caps have taken some swings at the draft over the last couple of years on talented but undersized players. Andrew Cristall, Cole Hutson and even Terik Parascak, to a certain degree, were choices others weren’t making around them, and I think it’s going to pay off. But they’ve also drafted a lot of wingers; when you add Ryan Leonard and Ivan Miroshnichenko to that group, it’s been a minute since they’ve taken a center. Gastrin, a projectable 3C, makes a lot of sense for them if he’s here. The Caps also had a big contingent at U18 worlds, where he finished strong. Benjamin Kindel and Potter would align more with the Cristall/Parascak choices, and both are technically listed as centers, but many believe they’ll be wingers in the NHL.
