All the buzz around the New Jersey Devils right now pertains to 2017 first overall pick Nico Hischier, but the team's sixth-round pick in the 2016 NHL Draft is making a name for himself right now.

Jesper Bratt was selected 162nd overall in 2016 and possess some quick and crafty hands that allows him to distribute the puck well on the rush. He's got a heavy shot and a fast release that helped Sweden to a silver medal at the 2016 World Junior U-18 Championships.

The 18-year-old spent the last four seasons in Sweden with the AIK organization, where he had six goals and 16 assists in 46 games last season. 

There's been some uncertainty regarding whether he'll be able to adapt to hockey at the NHL level, but if this goal against Pittsburgh in a recent rookie game is any indication, things are certainly trending in a positive direction.
