Why do 8/10 drafts slot Rasmussen to LA?

Much rather LA pick up Tippett if it goes down like this.

Physical monsters playing in juniors scare me off. Might not be a bad player but I just wonder if he tops out as a Brian Boyle.

I've got Rasmussen to LA in my mock and I'm not entirely sure why either. I don't know a ton about LA's draft tendencies, especially given the rarity of them picking in the 1st round

I think he fits LAs profile of "type" over the cup runs.

He's got a net front presence as well.

Just kinda hoping LA picks up a more dynamic player.

Pettersson/Necas/Suzuki/Tolvanen.

It's splitting hairs in this draft but LA needs to start adding speed and skill.
