Author’s edit: Due to NHL waiver claim rules, a statement that Fagemo would be headed to the AHL was incorrect and has been corrected.
Elliotte Friedman reported on Monday that the Predators had claimed forward Samuel Fagemo off waivers from the Los Angeles Kings.
The 23-year old Swedish forward had an extensive team Sweden junior career, playing on several U16, U17, U18 and U20 teams as well as Frolunda HC in the SHL. The Los Angeles Kings selected Fagemo with the 50th overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, and and signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Kings shortly after.
