Senators draft Roby Järventie 33rd overall

After trading the 52nd pick this morning for the acquisition of Matt Murray, pick number 33 became even more crucial for the Senators. With a lot of talent still remaining, the Sens chose Finnish winger Roby Järventie.

Järventie is described as a power forward who can use his size to protect the puck and get to the net. He has been playing in Mestis - the second highest men’s league in Finland. At 6’2” he is expected to be a top-6 forward with strong offensive abilities.
