The Calgary Flames have a lengthy tradition of drafting and developing Swedish players, dating back to the likes of Kent Nilsson and Hakan Loob. While it’s way too early to tell if 2019 NHL Draft selection Lucas Feuk will be anything close to his predecessors, he’s already built up some buzz in the scouting world.
Feuk – pronounced “folk” – is our 20th ranked prospect of 2019.
How did we get here?
Born in Stockholm and playing his youth hockey in the nearby suburb of Sodertalje, Feuk came up through the Sodertalje SK system and developed a reputation for two things: scoring points and taking a few penalties by being a tad too engaged in the play.
