Final pick of Round 4
Zether was the 129th overall pick by the Panthers in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Sporting a mid-October birthday, Zether was one of the draft's oldest first-year eligible players. While some analytic-driven teams undoubtedly dinged him for that, the flip side is that Zether spent 42 games in the SHL this past season. He only contributed four assists, but Zether isn't out there for his offense. He's a big body (6-foot-3) and a smart player. His zone exits are simple but clean. Swedish rearguards are taught how to defend at a young age, and Zether is no exception. Expect him to marinate in Europe for a couple more seasons before trying his hand stateside.
