Looks like a very talented kid who did well against his peers. But doesn’t have the size/strength yet to be able to bring that skill to a men’s league.

At his size, I can't imagine they let him anywhere near the AHL. Definitely needs to pack on some muscle.

Absolutely, he’s a beanpole. I think it’s safe to say he could probably get the weight he needs in the next 2 years. I saw a lot of remarks on him being a Pettersson lite type player. It makes sense at that weight and with that skill set to make the comparison.

Did some research, and I've come around on this. We NEED high-ceiling guys like this in the pipeline. Seems to be a hard worker, just a younger body and needs that body to mature.
Seems like a quality pick, if one that pretty much no one had on their radar.

People saying we could have traded down and got him…this is a wild take.
first, he was projected to go close to our pick.
second, there is a lot of variety of player rankings from team to team. So who knows where other teams would draft him.

It looks like he's under contract in Sweden for the next two years.

Man, I am torn. I watched with my dad and a friend of mine and they were laughing at his weight...which is a concern. Also he's not been the most productive of players at some levels.
But I kept coming back to the fact that he has insanely fast processing speed while figuring out plays and that's something you just can't teach. I get the Arvidsson comparisons and if that's what he becomes, I'm a-ok with that, but I honestly think he could be more of a force under the right coaching. I can't think of a great comparison even after watching his videos but mentally he has some instincts that jump out. Briere is not the same type of player, but the processing and quick decisions are similar. Either way, I'm all for this pick rather than a middling two-way guy. May as well go for bust while we can.
But please get the guy a normal haircut. He looks like the hidden 4th son from Home Improvement.

Rosen is listed at 5’11” 161lbs. When Jeff Skinner was drafted he was 5’10” 187lbs. Now, Skinner is 5’11” 195lbs. Elias Pettersson is 6’2” 176lbs.
Of course, every kid develops differently, but in 2 years I can see him at 6’0” 175lbs.
Adams had recently said that you draft based on future projections. Rosen already skates and shoots well, but adding size and strength can only help him. He will need it to survive in the men’s leagues.
I wish him the best.

2 full years in Sweden and then 1 full year in the AHL. This is the way. And Quinn will get a full year in the AHL this season. We aren't going to rush these kids, we shouldn't be rushing these kids, do Rosen right and he won't turn out like Risto.
Like this pick! Very high upside. Hoping the extra muscle doesn't deter from his quickness. May be a gem...
