PrintThe theme of the weekend for the Philadelphia Flyers is clearly "big defenseman," as they draft another one with their final pick in the draft. Oliver Lauridsen, a 6-5 defenseman from St. Cloud State University, is just absolultely gigantic.
Here is what Hockey's Future has to say about Laurdisen...
Lauridsen is a huge defenseman from Denmark with great size and reach. A team player with a good work ethic. Is aggressive and physical with the potential to become a very capable stay-at-home defenseman in the future. Mobility, in terms of skating, agility and acceleration, needs improvement.
