With the 38th overall pick in the 2017 NHL Draft, the Red Wings select defenseman Gustav Lindstrom out of Sweden.
Here’s what we know:
A puck-rushing defenseman who plays a well-rounded game. He displays impressive passing skills as he dishes out crisp and accurate passes. He is a good stick handler and carries the puck up ice with confidence. He sees passing lanes and open ice very well when going back to retrieve the puck and displays a strong ability to play a long accurate outlet pass, transitioning from defense to offense in a split second.
