This week, I took a look at several Swedish prospects within the Sabres organization. I continued my series by continuing to examine the Swedish Hockey League, this time interviewing Patrik Hansen, pro scout for Djurgärden IF. Of note to Sabres fans, Marcus Davidsson currently plays for Djurgärden. Buffalo drafted Davidsson in the second round, 37th overall, in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft.
Hansen never played the game, but always was a huge hockey fan. He had dreamt of getting into the hockey business. His opportunity came after getting in touch with Patrik Hall, who at the time was a scout for the independent scouting company Future Considerations.
