I published a complete scouting report of Cuylle earlier. Read that for a complete breakdown of his game and my analysis of his selection. In short, I think Cuylle has NHL upside, but that he was a massive reach in the second round.
92nd Overall - Oliver Tarnstrom, Center, AIK (Allsvenskan)
A player I wasn’t familiar with, for full disclosure. However, friend of the blog Alex Nunn, who focuses on European prospects, happens to be a massive AIK hockey fan! Here’s what he had to say about Tarnstrom:
Solid 2-way C, smart kid who leads and battles hard, skating could be better and I think they’ve gone a little early on him, but could pan out as a good bottom-6 all-jobs guy if he makes the show.
