MN Wild Recall Rookie From Iowa

Ohgren was drafted by Minnesota during the first round of the 2022 NHL Draft at 19th overall. He has played three games with the Iowa Wild this season since coming over from Sweden. He was assigned to Iowa on April 2, 2024. Ohgren signed a three-year entry-level contract on July 16th, 2022. He will wear number 28 with Minnesota.

During his 26 games this season with Färjestad BK in the Swedish Elite League, Ohgren scored 19 points (12 goals and 7 assists). Ohgren also served as the captain of Sweden’s team in the 2024 IIHF World Junior Championship and earned a silver medal while scoring 3 assists in the 7 games.

Ohgren plays on the wing and has shown steady development that projects him to be a top-six forward once he’s acclimated to the NHL. He brings some size with him, which should appease those who think Minnesota needs to physically bulk up. Ohgren has some offensive ability while also being defensively responsible. He’s a good skater, especially through the neutral zone and he drives play to the net to set up plays.
