Ludvig Rensfeldt - Oilers Draft Watch
There's a big Swedish center looking for an NHL home. No, it's not Peter Forsberg, it's Ludvig Rensfeldt, perhaps the best European prospect available in the 2010 NHL Draft.

The Oilers don't need to get shorter, and they don't need to get more Swedish, but maybe they should draft this kid anyway.
Tyler Pitlick falls into Edmonton's lap at #31 in the SB Nation Mock Draft. We all hope that the Oilers should be so lucky.
The Oilers system is bereft of goaltenders - does it make sense to grab one in the second round?
The Oilers have taken a Finn in the later rounds each of the last two seasons. If they do it again, they might just pick Iiro Pakarinen. Suomi!
Edmonton has a number of late-round picks. The Copper & Blue thinks that should take a flyer on The Glacier From Göteborg, Viktor Svedberg.
If the Oilers choose to go the European route with their second pick, The Copper & Blue say they should buy German.
The Oilers have two picks in the second round thanks to the Denis Grebeshkov trade. The Copper & Blue profile Slovak Martin Marincin, a hulking blueliner that makes a lot of sense for the 48th overall choice.
