That one player was Alexander Khovanov, who looks to have a place on Team Russia. It’s fair to say that Connor Dewar was unlucky to be overlooked too. Unfortunately (or fortunately) for the Minnesota Wild, neither of these players were first round picks, instead both being chosen in the third round.
You could argue that this is a knock on the Minnesota Wild’s scouts and the people making the decisions, given that their first round choice, Filip Johansson is nowhere to be seen on the Swedish selection camp roster.
Alternately, you could argue in favour of the scouting team, pointing to the fact that their third round picks are making waves in their respective leagues.
