Sweden
Melvin Fernström
A skilled shooter whose low motor and lack of involvement in building play could keep him from hitting the NHL despite a strong offensive tool to build around.
Viggo Gustafsson
A reliable defensive specialist who moves well and has bottom-pairing upside.
Lucas Edmonds
Potential top-six two-way winger. Not strong in peripheral categories but has great hands and good hockey sense.
Filip Bystedt
Playmaking center with great size. Added mobility and strength could see him develop into a strong middle-six pivot at the NHL level.
Leo Sahlin Wallenius
Skillful and agile offensive defenseman who is still figuring out how to play at high speeds and defend effectively. Could make a solid #4 and power-play specialist if he puts it together.
Gabriel Eliasson
A violent hulking defenseman who moves well but just about every habit in his game needs to progress significantly for him to reach an NHL caliber.
Lucas Pettersson
At his best, an offensively gifted center with a high pace, well-rounded two-way game. Needs to show his best more consistently.
Olof Glifford
A sizeable 6-5 goaltender who moves well and has solid fundamentals. Glifford needs to work on over-adjusting and playing closer to his size. He has a long way to making the NHL but could one day be an all-star netminder if he pieces all of his tools together
Hardy Häman Aktell
Two-way defenseman with good size and an intriguingly late developing skill set
Liam Danielsson
An undersized perimeter playmaker who lit up the J20 but will need to adapt to crack an NHL lineup with time.
