FUTURE WA TCH
THEY DIDN’T HAVE the plethora of extra picks like Vegas did that first draft, but the Kraken did grab a potential franchise-cornerstone center in Michigan standout Matty Beniers. His twoway excellence has him on track to be in Seattle soon. Ryan Winterton brings in-your-face energy, and Ryker Evans is a zone-exit machine on the blueline, while goalie Semyon Vyazovoi plays for a great goalie development system with Ufa in Russia.
