What I love about the Henriksson pick shows that we're not afraid of taking smaller, skilled players. The only other player we've taken in that mold is Ronning, who was a good value 7th rounder. I like the risk there.

One final note on the rankings: Prospects from Nos. 25 through 50 are, more or less interchangeable. Which is to say every player ranked in the top 50 got at least one vote as a first-rounder. Swedish defenceman Simon Lundmark (No. 61), U.S. high school defenceman Jayden Struble (No. 63), Swedish defenceman Albert Johansson (No. 72) and even Swedish centre Karl Henriksson (No. 83) had noteworthy, albeit isolated, first-round support.

Read a bit on Henriksson he may be a steal here. Nice numbers. Maybe our 2nd line center of the future?
 
if Miller is worth that i'd really like to know what Kreider is worth....

Astounding price without knowing the condition but since JT is signed I recon it’s just a top 10 protection. Simply astounding at that salary.
 
I could not be more thrilled. Had Robertson at 23 and Henriksson at 25. Only player I had higher was Dorofeyev at 21.

Robertson honestly reminds me of McDonagh as a prospect. Lower ceiling, but could be a 2/3 D. He can skate, he can defend, and his offense shows flashes of a skill set that is untapped.

Henriksson centered Raymond and Holtz in the u18s where they won gold. I believe Raymond was quoted as saying Henriksson was the most valuable player on that team. Karl also just recently dropped soccer to focus on hockey full time. He was on the national team track for that as well I believe. Outstanding playmaker and quite an athlete.
 
Henriksson is a floor pick or a ceiling pick? I'm seeing people on both sides of the aisle.
