Melvin Fernstrom | RW


Recommended Posts

Here's the thing

 

With Fernstrom, Patterson and every pick we have from here on out.  We can absolutely try to swing for the fences because we don't have any guaranteed picks in positions that are almost guaranteed to hit.

 

Ie first and second rounds.

 

So aim high and get those Melvin chants ready!

Fernstrom had at least one scout who ranked him as going in the first round. Once you get deeper in the draft like this (choices we make to push in a good season), you have to take fliers on guys like this who could be high reward. It's much more rare to find big players in the late round with the level of scouting so I'd rather that than picking a safe guy with AHL potential.

I'm a bit surprised they didn't go after Zetterberg too. They play'd a lot together and had great chem at the WJ and Orebro. 

 

Same. I was watching Fernstrom highlights but can't help but be drawn to Zetterberg. That kid looks like a swedish Cole Caufield. I really hope JR and Alvin know what their doing getting that Basillie kid, its hard to deny Zetterberg's talent. He had a 2nd round grade
