NHL Draft Lottery recap, The Athletic NHL's 2021 Mock Draft 1.0 breakdown, listener questions, and more

First, on the debut episode of The Athletic Hockey Show Prospect Series, Max Bultman and Corey Pronman discuss the NHL Draft Lottery results, including the Buffalo Sabres getting the first overall pick, Owen Power emerging as the consensus number one prospect, how scouting has been impacted by COVID-19, and more. Then, the guys break down The Athletic NHL’s first mock draft of the year and talk about how a Jack Eichel trade could change the equation at the top of the board, who, if anyone, could challenge Owen Power as the first overall pick, options for the Seattle Kraken in the number two spot, Mason McTavish’s rise into a top-ten prospect, and more. To close things out, the guys answer a bunch of listener questions, including thoughts on Aatu Raty as a prospect, how the process of evaluating goalies differs from skater evals, if the Sabres would consider moving the number one pick, and more.
