But considering they’ve had four top-5 picks in the past six years — including two No. 1 overall selections — it’s also been a long time coming. The Kraken have also made a similar jump, going from 30th overall in their expansion season to seventh overall, mostly due to the play of Calder Trophy favourite Matty Beniers and off-season acquisition Andre Burakovsky .
