Buffalo Sabres Top 20 under 24: #12 Mattias Samuelsson

2020-21 Team: Rochester Americans

Mattias Samuelsson is coming off a 2019-20 collegiate season that saw him captain the Western Michigan Broncos to an 18-13-5 record and was primed to compete in the NCHC playoffs as only a 19 year old sophomore. Samuelsson has always been known for two things: his leadership and his physical presence. He has captained the u18 and u20 teams for team USA and has always had the physicality to separate players from the puck and to clear the front of the net.

While he is not an elite skater; he is more than able to move well around the ice.
