The Finnish forward factory continues to churn out product, with the country being well-represented yet again in this year’s draft class. While the Finns aren’t boasting a Patrik Laine equivalent in 2018, a number of his countrymen will be hearing their name called early on.
Though not the most prolific among them, Niklas Nordgren may turn out to be a very good pick come draft day. Size is a concern, but after showcasing his skill throughout an impressive season at the top level of junior hockey in Finland, there’s a lot to like about his game.
