The future of the Anaheim Ducks has grown brighter with the influx of a new draft class. There is much this new wave of players brings to the table. We will finish our synopsis of these newest additions with an overview of the Anaheim Ducks final five selections of the 2018 draft.

There is no guarantee that any of the Anaheim Ducks 2018 draft picks will ever crack an NHL lineup. The likelihood is definitely high. At this point, its pretty much impossible for us to predict how these players will progress. In order for a player to contend for NHL ice time, there is a great deal of development that must take place.

Unfortunately, we do not have the luxury of looking into the future to see what is in store for these players. Nevertheless, we can still draw small conclusions based on what we already know.

Put aside any reservations you may have about this years draft class. We put our trust in the decisions GM Bob Murray makes, and he has drafted well recently. Never mind the Jason Chimera and Chris Kelly incident from last season. You can be confident that Murray is going to make decisions, to the best of his ability, that benefits his team. GMBM, or any GM for that matter, doesn’t walk into a draft unprepared.

As we review the five players selected in rounds two through six, keep these things in mind. There is no promise of advancement in the NHL. Nor is there a guarantee to stardom. However, there is assurance of one thing: opportunity.
