Hatter of the Beach
I’m the real hero
I was feeling the same but have cooled on him based on my (admittedly limited) viewings.Niederbach is one of those guys I have a real good feeling about. I feel like he could be a good second line center one day.
While I think he was a fine pick, I see some people (not you specifically) refer to him as a steal still, but im not sure if his production warrants those thoughts. If he was a Draper pick
named John Anderson from Wisconsin instead of a Hakan pick with a Swedish name, I think a lot of the mystique would be lost. He looked good in Swedish Jr’s, but he hasn’t really produced up to expectation in the international viewings and stat lines I’ve been seeing.
At this point I’m feeling a Jarnkrok/Janmark type player, which is still good value for his draft slot, but on a personal level I haven’t seen much to be hopeful for in terms of high offense at the NHL level.
