Im pretty sure the past like 5 drafts that has always been our 3rd/4th round pick type of player (well except cousins who it looks like Homer did a good job picking out)

In '09 they did take Bertilsson in the 3rd, who put up really good numbers for a 17 y.o defenseman in Swedish Juniors. Then 6 years ago they took Lehtivuori in the 4th, an offensive minded Finnish D-man. He's one of only a few Finns drafted in the last decade, though.
