Simon Edvinsson
Recently drafted 6th overall, Simon Edvinsson should be a mainstay on the Detroit blueline for the next decade. Like most players drafted this summer, Edvinsson needs to get stronger so that he can handle the rigors of playing in the NHL. Expect Edvinsson to play for Frolunda (SHL) for at least one more year before moving to North America in 2022. He should also play an important role for Sweden at the World Junior Championships at Christmas. Edvinsson should be a regular in Detroit’s lineup in about two years.
