The intrigue in the 2020 NHL Draft could start with the Los Angeles Kings at the No. 2 pick.

Three NHL.com writers agree that the New York Rangers will select left wing Alexis Lafreniere of Rimouski of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League at No. 1. New York won No. 1 pick in the Second Phase of the NHL Draft Lottery on Aug. 10.

What the Kings do next remains unknown, but it's likely the decision will come down to center Quinton Byfield of Sudbury of the Ontario Hockey League and left wing Tim Stuetzle of Mannheim of Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL), Germany's top professional league.
