Linköping is 3rd in the League, on the same points as Frölunda who is 4th but with +8 goals compared to +6 That should be interesting. He’s been in the Frölunda system a long time, which can be good and bad. Good in that there can be loyalty and value based on the time a team has invested in a player. Bad because players can sometimes get pigeonholed into roles and somewhat limited in what their coaches believe they’re capable of. Hopefully the move means he’ll get to play more, but we’ll see what happens. If nothing else, he has a whole new set of team training records to smash.

SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 (edited) So far, so good, for Gunnarsson, since being loaned to Linköping. 19:14 and 13:48 TOI in his two games with the new team. Had 7 hits through the two games. Was averaging around 10 minutes in Frölunda, and closer to 5 minutes in the last few games he played before the move.

SingleThorn Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 KG with an assist today. Doubles his season points total and it's only the second period, so expect those numbers to explode ! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Gunnarsson did something! I can not begin to describe the level of excitement I feel whenever this thread gets bumped. It’s really like Christmas morning whenever he scores a point. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Don't see him getting signed. Drafting overagers who don't score at any level doesn't usually work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it very surprising that JB even picked him in the draft. The dude is scary strong but other than that he really has little to no upside at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK_19 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I understand late draft picks are long shots anyways but this pick was an odd one looking at his stats prior to being drafted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the thought was a reliable stay at home defensive dman, hence offensive stats not being of huge importance, although they are hilariously lacking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scouting is a science that relies on people to make projections of how other people would perform many, many years down the road. It's bound to get stuff wrong. It's a 5th rounder - not many get to play, even when drafted higher than this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid had little to no history of production and had nothing really going for him besides being a gym rat lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
