Player Discussion Adam Edström

Big, solid, strong on the puck, and can skate. His upside is however far his Hockey IQ will take him. The play he made to Rempe is exactly the type of play a player who is confident in his abilities and reach to get to the puck. You hope he gets more comfortable pulling off things like that. Guy could become a middle 6 monster that will be tough for opponents to handle.

Best 4th line since 2014? It was also pretty good in 2022.

Someone was ragging on Drury for drafting 6'6 cavemen but this one is pretty damn good I would say.

Gorton pick, like Rempe, but looks like our track record with giants isn't all that bad.

Ragging is all that certain someone does. Not one positive post.

Big part of the 4th line which as of now has been a huge part of why this team is playing better.
We actually have a decent 4th line and a 4th line that doesn't make 9-10 million dollars. Actually around 2.5 million

Only 2 players drafted by Drury have played for the Rangers as of now, for a combined 18 games.

Neither Rempe nor Edström were drafted by Drury.

Is it a poster who goes by 4991 backwards?

He plays a very simple game and uses his reach to his advantage. If he can begin to utilize his size, he may untap some higher potential. Also a good skater at 6'7, not a good skater for someone 6'7.

He's been cruising around 11 minutes a night during this winning stretch. Feel like getting him PK reps is a must going forward. That is the first way to expand his role.

I don't know how good he could be, but he's someone worth locking up for 2 years and seeing if he can be more than a good 4th liner.

Future Brian Boyle? Or does he have more offensive upside?
