The Predators selected Juuso Pärssinen, a Finnish forward, with their final pick of the NHL Draft.
Here’s what Eric wrote about him as a possible fifth-round pick for the Preds:
Parssinen just finished his first full season in the Jr. A Sm-liiga with TPS, finishing eighth on the team in scoring with 22 points (nearly everyone ahead of him in scoring is not draft eligible). Parssinen also played seven games in the Liiga with TPS, scoring one goal. He added two points in five games at the U18 World Junior Championships but came up empty in four games at the Hlinka Gretzky Cup for Finland.
