A video on Brome's highlights this season. Can see why Canucks are interested.

From talking to some Swedish people, I think Detroit was the most popular team for many Swedish hockey fans. I'm sure these players grew up watching the Red Wings. And Vancouver with its history of Swedish players... I'm not surprised that it's between Vancouver and Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hilarious because would you rather join a team on the rise, with the next Swedish superstar on it, or a team that was on its way to the worst NHL season since the 95/96 Sharks? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are apparently still waiting for the IIHF deal to be reached and can't sign international players until then. Hoglander is in the same holding pattern.

thad Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Every once in a while one of these dudes just has it in him and carves out a spot for himself in this league. May not be the free lottery ticket but it’s at least a solid raffle ticket haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penguins and Rangers in the 90s, Red Wings and Avalanche in the 00s, Red Wings and Canucks in the 10s. Popular fan choice decided by which TV network owned the game rights and which teams had the greatest number of Swedes in recent history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling for the 2020s it will be Vancouver (Pettersson, Markstrom, Hoglander etc.) and Buffalo (Dahlin, Oloffson etc.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
