2010 Fantasy Outlook
Klasen recorded a career-high 51 points (19G, 32A) in the Swedish Elite League last season. He has dazzling offensive skills who is seen as a future top-six forward for the Preds. According to GM David Poile, "[Klasen] will be a guy we'll give a good look to in training camp and see what happens...he's gifted offensively and he's going to be a guy who could play on our top two lines and our power play." That said, Klasen will first have to make the transition from Europe to North America, likely with a stint in the AHL.
