LA Kings Draft: Mason McTavish 2021 NHL Draft Prospect Profile
By Ryan Sikes
Surging up NHL Draft boards, Mason McTavish could be in play for the LA Kings with a top-ten pick. The Swiss forward was outstanding in the OHL a year ago.
His rankings are all over the place right now, but Mason McTavish could wind up being a top-ten draft pick. With the LA Kings season now completed, they will soon learn their draft slot on June 2. It’s well-documented the Kings are deep up the middle. McTavish as a centerman, on paper, probably isn’t the first choice, but if he’s the best player available on the board when LA is on the clock, that’s a very good problem to have.
McTavish was without a place to play this past season with the OHL season canceled. As a rookie with Peterborough in 19-20, he finished sixth on the team in scoring and was named to the OHL’s Second All-Rookie Team. He recently helped Team Canada win the Gold Medal at the U18s and earned U18 WJC Top 3 Player on the Team honors.
