NHL rookie camps are winding down and team execs are getting
excited about the fruits of their drafting labor, so let's get
excited along with them. Here's the latest list of players we're
itching to see in the NHL some day.
1. Alexander Fallstrom, RW - Shattuck-St. Mary's Sabres
(prep): The Wild may not have been avoiding
Minnesota-reared prospects in recent drafts, but the franchise
wasn't exactly seeking them out, either. That changed in 2009 as
the team tabbed native son Nick Leddy, as well as two Europeans
playing for Minnesota prep powerhouse Shattuck-St. Mary's: Finn
Erik Haula and Swede Fallstrom.
Fallstrom, who will attend Harvard in the fall, led the Sabres
with 80 points in 48 games last season and is happy to be drafted
by his ‘home' team.
