Ducks Trade McTavish for Top Prospect Klepov | NHL News
Description
The Anaheim Ducks pulled off a bold trade, sending star forward Mason McTavish to the St. Louis Blues for picks 15 and 29 — a move designed to land elite prospect Nikita Klepov, the top Russian-born talent in this year’s draft. Klepov, just 17, obliterated the OHL rookie scoring record with 97 points (37 goals) and is seen as a fast-tracked NHL asset. While McTavish’s departure stings, the Ducks are betting Klepov’s upside and scoring prowess will reshape their roster — especially with new financial constraints after signing Leo Carlsson. Klepov, who’ll play college hockey at Michigan State, brings a fierce competitive edge and Russian pedigree to Anaheim’s future.
