Joel Eriksson Ek is believed to one of the top European skaters in this draft class, but where he'll go in June is anyone's guess. Some have him going late in the first round, while other mock draft have him being selected in the second round. Eriksson Ek picked up 34 games of experience in the SHL and has represented Sweden in recent World Junior events.
