NHL draft profile: Isac Lundestrom's upside is what Stars need to look for in prospects

Isac Lundestrom has an aggressively strong hockey name. The Swedish forward from Lulea in the Swedish Hockey League is another of those "safe picks" with high floors and low ceilings. A two-way talent who could slot into the middle of the first round would fit what the Stars have done recently, even if it isn't necessarily the dynamic pick they need.

Lundestrom has already completed two years in Sweden's top league. As one of the older players in this draft he's got a little less tread on the tires. At 18 he had six points in 45 games for Lulea, but jumped up to 15 in 42 games this past season.
