Lynden Lakovic, selected 27th overall by the Washington Capitals in the NHL draft, expressed a mix of excitement and relief upon hearing his name. He had a productive season with the Moose Jaw Warriors, scoring 58 points in 47 games. Capitals' assistant GM Ross Mahoney praised Lakovic's speed, size, and shot, highlighting his skills. Lakovic acknowledged that while his size and shooting stand out, his anticipation and hockey IQ play essential roles in his gameplay. He models his style after NHL players Tage Thompson and Matthew Knies, aiming to leverage his attributes similarly.
It was a long day and I'm so excited to be a part of such a great organization,
Six-foot-four, 190-pound winger with good skill, good sense, skates really well.
I think I'm really good at anticipating plays and I try and play with a lot of hockey IQ.
I would say Tage because we have similar frames and both our attributes are our shots.
