NHL Mock Draft 2021: Owen Power to Sabres as we pick for every lottery team (and predict trades) - The Athletic

The lottery balls fell into place and the top of the NHL Draft order starts with the Buffalo Sabres at No. 1, the Seattle Kraken at No. 2 and the Anaheim Ducks dropping to No. 3.

The question that will remain until the first round is held virtually on July 23, is who is your team going to draft. To give a look at how things could play out, The Athletic’s NHL writers made all of the lottery picks.

Then prospect writer Corey Pronman audited their selections, along with getting feedback from NHL scouts.

Will the top four defensemen go early? Is any team going to take a goalie in the top 15? Let’s draft.

1. Buffalo Sabres: Owen Power, LHD, Michigan-Big Ten

Power is the safe, logical pick. He also might be a tough sell in Buffalo. The Sabres haven’t been able to score for a decade.
