CAN THIS GUY MAKE THE SWEDISH JR TEAM NEXT YEAR?


HOPEFULLY HE CAN DEVELOP TO AN EKMAN -LARSSON

I don't know, but I can say that his size is great! Perhaps an Ohlund V 2.0 but with more offensive upside? Dare I say call him the next OT goal scoring machine?

Considering it's a U-20 team, it is possible.

3 guys on defense from the 09 WJC team for Sweden won't be returning.

[Canuck Dipper]

If your gonna make a thread on a player, pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssee post his stats and scoting report..

[Captain Planet]

I really hope he is the next Ohlund. His stats and size seem promising.

[AK-47]

I hope we pulled another Edler here!

[Sanford]

So anything new about this kid? Is he coming over to play in the chl?

[LickTheEnvelope]

His jump from mid-term ranking of 100 to final ranking of 48 is quit remarkable.

Looks like he was on the roster @ the Ivan Hlinka tourney with alot of high picks this year:

Quote

The Swedish U18 national team:

Goalkeepers: Johan Gustafsson (Färjestad), Robin Lehner (Frölunda).

Defencemen: Eddie Larsson (Linköping), Simon Bertilsson (Brynäs), Niklas Edman (Färjestad), Oliver Ekman Larsson (Leksand), Fredrik Styrman (Luleå), Adam Larsson (Skellefteå), Peter Andersson (Frölunda), Tim Erixon (Skellefteå).

Forwards: Patrick Cehlin (Djurgården), Martin Karlsson (Leksand), Gabriel Landeskog (Djurgården), Anton Lander (Timrå), Carl Klingberg (Frölunda), Filip Gunnarsson (Färjestad), Magnus Svensson Pääjärvi (Timrå), Jonathan Johansson (Frölunda), Calle Järnkrok (Brynäs), Jacob Josefson (Djurgården), Mattias Lindström (Skellefteå), Oscar Lindberg (Skellefteå).

Had 1 goal in 6 games at the U18s.

Looks good. Give him a couple of years to see how good exactly.

[fogducker]

Very good to see that he made that team. Encouraging to say the least. Though John Norman is about as Swedish sounding a name as Richard Park. He and Douglas Murray must be good friends.

[Otaku]

Does anyone know how his mobility is for a defenceman?

[bieksa3-]

Chances of him coming to prospect camp?

Hard to say, though if he still has a contract with a Swedish club the chances are diminished. Of this year's draft class it's probably going to be slim pickings at camp. Schroeder won't unless he pays his own way, something we can hope Patrick White convinces him to do. Rodin is the in the same boat as Andersson. Connauton is in the same boat as Schroeder. Price is not in Colgate yet, so there's a better chance. Cannata in college, so likely not. Anthony is just about the only lock to be there.

I'm actually looking forward to seeing Anthony there. I want to see this guy really rip it up and prove everyone wrong. I hope he's really learnt his lesson at such a young age.

Schroeder did an interview with Blake Price on the team1040 today and said he WOULD be coming to prospects camp starting next monday.

I would be surprised if Andersson and Rödin werent there, I think the Canucks would like to see them both with their own eyes and develop a workout/meal plan strategy for all their prospects.

gillis is using the Aquilini's money to further develop its players, and this is where that starts.

I hope they are there.

[Gnickers87]

Kellen Tochkin will be at the Prospects Camp.

There will also be some other guys who are invited that we haven't heard of. For example. Brandon Wong was invited last year.

Who else is supposed to be there this year for non-drafted invitees?

Wong is a pretty good hockey player, small and can dangle - was a BCHL all-star a number of years ago.
