The eighteen-year-old Command is 6'1 and spent last season with Orebro of the Swedish Under 20 league, scoring seventeen goals and twenty-seven assists in thirty games.
I've often written that I go by others in reviewing the NHL Draft, as I haven't seen enough of these players to form a knowledgeable opinion, but it seems that some see this as a mild surprise, as the Devils were mocked with several other players.
Command's offensive stats last season belie his reputation as an excellent two-way player, and known for physical play, which some compare to the Devils captain, Nico Hischier.
Command will likely return to Sweden for next season.
