The 2020 NHL Draft will be October 9 & 10, conducted remotely. The Calgary Flames have a first round selection and will pick 19th overall. In advance of the draft, we’ll be looking at some contenders to be selected at 19th.

Lukas Reichel is another top prospect to come out of Germany, following the likes of Moritz Seider, Dominik Bokk, Leon Draisaitl, and fellow 2020-eligible players Tim Stützle and John-Jason Peterka. Let’s take a closer look at this left-handed left-winger.
