The NHL draft is sticking close to the league's headquarters in New York. The league announced Friday the 2013 draft will be held at the Prudential Center, the home of the Devils in Newark, N.J. The 2014 edition will be at the Wells Fargo Center, home of the Flyers.

Henrik Samuelsson admits he was too young to remember what life was really like when his dad was as a member of the Penguins in the early 1990s. Still, Henrik knows how special it would be for dad to hear his son's name called on the stage at Consol Energy Center during the NHL Draft in the city where he won two Stanley Cups. "Dad had some good memories [in Pittsburgh]," Henrik Samuelsson told NHL.com. "The fact I was born there and that he spent so much time there and won two Cups is special. Hopefully for the two of us, I'll get drafted." Samuelsson is one of five Pennsylvania natives with a good shot at hearing his name at some point in the draft.

Finnish forward Teuvo Teravainen may be small in stature but he's already a proven performer. The 17-year-old Teravainen had as impressive a second half to the season as one could possibly have in their draft year after being promoted to Jokerit in the SM-Liiga, the top professional league in Finland. "He joined Jokerit right after the Christmas break [after a fast start with the club's Under-20 team] and proved to be a player with outstanding hockey sense and great overall skill," NHL Director of European Scouting, Goran Stubb, told NHL.com. Central Scouting expects Teravainen to be the first player from Finland off the board. He's ranked No. 2 behind Sweden's Filip Forsberg on Central's final list of draft-eligible skaters from Europe.
