With the sixth pick in the second round, number 37 overall, the Buffalo Sabres have selected...center Marcus Davidsson from the SHL.
Davidsson has a similar skillset to the team’s first round draft pick, Casey Mittelstadt. He’s a great skater, has good hockey sense and plays with energy. He’s a strong two-way player who can be used on both special teams units. The 18-year old Swede is versatile, and can play either center or left wing.
Standing 6’0’’, 192 lbs, Davidsson played last year in the SHL, scoring 9 points in 45 games as an 18-year old.
