  • AHL Prospect Preview 2020-21 by Jon Litterine & Steve Kournianos of Thedraftanalyst.Com
    AHL Prospect Preview 2020-21 By Jon Litterine & Steve Kournianos of TheDraftAnalyst.com • Complete team-by-team coverage for all 31 AHL affiliates • 197 individual prospect profiles with personal data, transactions, draft position, and summaries • Updates on recent AHL graduates currently on NHL rosters © 2021 by TheDraftAnalyst.com. No portion of this report may be reprinted or reproduced without the express written consent of the publisher San Diego Gulls (Anaheim Ducks) Max Comtois (LW, 6’2, 215 pounds, acquired: 2nd Rd {50th overall} 2017): Comtois is the most NHL-ready prospect in the Anaheim system, having performed well a season ago with both the Ducks (11 points in 29 games) and in San Diego (24 points in 31 games). Comtois is a big body with an underrated offensive skill set. I had him pegged as more of a bottom-six type in his draft year, but his skating has improved, and his hockey sense is strong. Comtois has appeared in all 13 of Anaheim’s games through Sunday (5 goals, 1 assist) with an average of 14:09 per match. It’s safe to say Comtois is done with the AHL. Jack Kopacka (LW, 6’3, 192 pounds, acquired: 4th Rd {93rd overall} 2016): Kopacka is no longer part of the organization as he was recently traded to San Jose for older minor-league defenseman Trevor Carrick. Kopacka once stood out as a potential late bloomer due to the fact he played a depth role on some loaded Sault Ste. Marie teams back in his OHL days, but it just hasn’t clicked for him at the professional level.
