2016 6th rd pick steals spotlight from Nico Hischier



New Jersey Devils 2016 6th Jesper Bratt has been a huge surprise for the fans. Bratt, the Stockholm, Sweden native was taken 162nd overall last season, is just 19 years old.

After being passed on by every team at least 5 times in the 2016 NHL draft, Bratt plans to show what he's capable of all season with New Jersey. Bratt has scored 3 goals and 2 assists for 5 points in his first two NHL games. The Sweden native has completely stolen the spotlight from 2017 1st overall pick Nico Hischier, who has just 1 assist in his first 2 games. Devils fans are ecstatic as it seems they have found a diamond in the rough in Bratt.
