Fourth Round

Örebro HK (SHL). 94. player. Pick Analysis. Forward. Scouting Report. Viktor Lodin. 91

After making three selections in the first two rounds, the Ottawa Senators had to wait until the start of the fourth round before they could add another prospect.

With the 94th overall pick, the Senators selected versatile Swedish forward Viktor Lodin from Örebro HK of the Swedish Hockey League.

The 20-year-old forward spent his draft year playing professional hockey, earning a goal and four assists in the process.

Being a later selection by the Senators, Lodin is likely to return to Örebro to continue his development with the Senators continuing to keep an eye on him, as they reportedly have done over the past few seasons.

Per the Ottawa Citizen, European scout Mikko Ruutu believes that Lodin is a strong player that could be a speedy power-forward style player and has the potential to be a good NHL player if he continues to make the great strides seen over this past season.
