Alright, watched some interviews and Highlights of Ehlers.

There is zero doubt he is one of the fastest skaters in this draft. Blazing speed.

Very stocky build. Still seems a bit small. (And this is where I think the Flames would take a pass on risking a top 4 pick on him.)

This is no slight but he reminds me a bunch of Huselius. Spins around and curls like Juice did. He simply will not have the room to do these things in the NHL. Small....very small concern there.

Looks like Saku Koivu.

Danish family who moved to Switzerland 6 years ago apparently.


I don't know, In all seriousness, if the Flames were picking 6-7, I'd be gleeful he was there and say he'll be a steal there. At 4 though? I still believe Draisaitl is the better option. But we'll all have our preferences. I still think Bennett is a Flame at the end of the day.

Good player, definitely in the mix for me anyways with Perlini and Dal Colle, and a better bet than Ritchie IMO.
