Karl Henriksson was drafted in the 2nd round, 58th overall by the New York Rangers in the 2019 NHL entry draft. Henriksson is a prospect that Rangers fans should be talking about little bit more as he as the potential to be a really effective player at the NHL level in a few years.
Karl Henriksson is from Malmo, Sweden and he is listed as 5″9 175 lbs. He is 18 years old and played center for Frolunda HC J20 in the Swedish equivalent of junior hockey. He tallied 49 points in 45 games played last season. Don’t let his size fool you as he is said to be a very fast skater by scouts.
