This weekend we will find out the draft order for the 2018 NHL Entry Draft in Dallas. The Edmonton Oilers have a 15% chance of jumping up into the top three from number nine and a 5% chance at selecting Swedish wonder-kid Rasmus Dahlin.
I don’t want to focus on the apparent prospects for this post though. I’m interested in a player who the Oilers could potentially select in the second round or if they’re fortunate in the 3rd round.
His name is Niklas Nordgren. His club is HIFK. He is a right-winger.
