NLL Expansion: Panther City LC Mock Draft

Albany – Jean-Luc Chetner (LD)

Another year, another expansion team for Jean-Luc Chetner. This is what happens when you continue to show versatility on film. In New York, Chetner was being employed on the power-play and the penalty-kill at different points in the season. He is probably better suited in a backdoor role, but can be utilized in a variety of ways.

Buffalo – Jordan Stouros (LD)

Jordan Stouros should not be viewed as a rookie. He’ll be 25 years old when he makes his professional debut. Stouros cut his teeth (28 GP) in the MSL with the NLL All-Star team that is the Peterborough Lakers. The stocky defender plays with an edge and will make an immediate impact as a member of the faceoff unit.

Calgary – Marshal King (RF)

I really believe that the Roughnecks staff are hoping that Panther City selects someone other than King. This is typically a good sign for the team making the pick. Despite a small sample size as a professional (5 GP, 16 PTS), I believe that King has already flashed enough to make teams regret letting him get out of the first round in the 2019 Entry Draft. He becomes an immediate candidate to play the point on the power-play.
