Liam Öhgren is a fascinating prospect, mostly because he is inseparable from two other top Swedish forward prospects in this year’s draft: Noah and Jonathan Lekkerimäki. The reasons why they are difficult to separate is obvious, for a few reasons.
First, they’re all potential first round picks (Östlund may fall to the second but is worth a late first). They’re all Swedish forwards. And they all played for the same Djurgårdens team in Sweden, both junior and the pros, on the same line. It can be hard to separate the three in terms of their production or their skills, because they each have their own strengths and weaknesses.
