- Thread starter ItsTheBGB
- Start date
Yup, he's on the second line and he is doing well. Very physical and can put the pick in the net.

Big Addition for Edmonton in Samuelsson
Loads of comments from GM Bob Green, coach Derek Laxdal and from Samuelsson himself.

This kid straight up competes and plays with an edge. Have to love when you see that competitiveness from a kid who has that pedigree and had every luxury while growing up. Always goes to the net too, which is something you like to see from prospects. It's how the majority of them will get many of the points they end up getting at the next level.
He's only been in Edmonton for a few months but I honestly believe he has an excellent chance to be an NHL player. This is coming from a guy who realizes the percentages you're playing with when you get to that second round range (not high).

Henrik Samuelsson - What is the word on him?
Haven't seen much written about him, what is the report on his skills and potential.
Also, is he expected to go in the first round?
Thanks.

booo... beat me to it!!
Sammy is supposedly a Kesler'ish player who is projected to go late 1st.
I have heard is a Lucic type. Would be a great fit for the Pens who look like a sad sack team in the playoffs now.

Who is the best Lucic-type player in the draft this year?
Love how Lucic plays, minus when he crosses the line. Which is often.
Well then you won't like Samuelsson much, this guy is chippy and dirty but competitive as hell. It runs in his blood - look who his dad is. Suspended three times in 28 games. Not taking anything away from him as a player because I think he can make it and I love watching him go to the net on the Oil Kings.
I like how Lucic plays that intimidating style. But Lucic does cross the line. Never gets punished, so why would he change his game. But he effects the game with his grit and with his skill.
What did Henrik do to get suspended? Careless stuff or intentional?

Not up on all the hockey prospects, but will check him out.
Where is he expected to go in the draft?
Thanks.
Especially playing for the Oilers owned Oil Kings. They get to see a lot of him, have inside information and have already shown a propensity for drafting Oil King players including Ewanyk, Pelss, and Gernat.
