Clever pick. Age matters and it's smart to draft overagers in later rounds. It's clever to take 1 with a late August or early September birthday. You're getting a player who just had their 18 yr old season but you've gotten actually another year of evaluation on them. No guarantee it will work out but clever. 

1 month older than Lavoie. 4 rounds later. Not comparing them directly, just noting the age difference.

will be interesting to see if this strategy works out and if any late bloomers work out

Botterill should have been fired immediately for this pick.

Uhm, right.  Keep smoking up!    Unless this is sarcasm.  I like the pick.  Even though we could have had him potentially last year at the same pick we traded to Toronto for the 2019 pick we used to trade up and get him.  I don't mind it at all, as he progressed and jumped to the SHL from Swedish Jr.

There is also some finesse to Cederqvists offensive game. Brute force isn’t the sole driver of Cederqvist’s output. He is a decent stickhandler and uses that skill to catch his opponents off guard in 1-on-1 situations on rare occasions.

Overall, though, Cederqvist’s puck skills are fairly average. Even if there are times when he can make smart and unexpected plays while maintaining full control of the puck there are several other times where he fails due to not being able to keep the puck on his stick.
