Sweden
Offense-first, right-shot defenseman who drives a power play with his skating and distribution, and the most productive blueliner in his draft class at the U20 level. The size is the risk, but the fantasy ceiling is a power-play-running top-four defender, the highest of this group.
Toolsy, competitive center whose scoring has followed him up a level, with enough playmaking to drive secondary offense if the shot keeps translating.
A more diminutive playmaking winger with a quick release that doesn't shy away from being physical. He needs to get stronger on the puck and in the corners, and overall, he needs to be more challenging to play against.
Former first round pick who had excited fantasy circles, but hasn't latched on to an NHL opportunity.
A physical, defense-minded defenseman.
Elusive playmaking winger who breaks down opposing defenders with his great speed and puck handling ability. A threat off the rush and from the half wall on the power play.
A mobile defenseman who shines brightest with the puck on his stick in transition; he sparks quick counterattacks and jumps in to support the rush in the offensive zone.
A reliable two-way defenseman with a high hockey IQ and excellent passing ability but lacks high-end skill.
A big bodied netminder who has shown steady improvement on North American ice over the past several years.
