4. Seattle: Ivar Stenberg, LW, Frolunda (SHL)
Stenberg, the younger brother of St. Louis first-round pick Otto Stenberg, was exceptional at the junior level in Sweden this season. He eventually got bumped up to the SHL, where he took a regular shift for Frolunda. He was also a top player for Sweden’s U18 team, posting big numbers at several international events. Stenberg is super skilled and smart. He makes a ton of difficult plays with the puck, and often does so with pace. He’s a high-end playmaker and shooter who can project to run a power-play flank in the NHL. He’s undersized, but he skates well and plays hard, so I think his size won’t be a major hindrance.
