mll Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) Is the level of Allsvenskan back to where it was pre-expansion (*)? I was surprised to see that Friesen is a PPG player in Allsvenskan (27pts in 26 games). His best season in the AHL was in Utica and he was 0.5 PPG. Last season he had 12 points in 76 games for the Chicago Wolves. Pastrnak was 0.75 PPG in Allsvenskan (before expansion) but was immediately above PPG in the AHL (in part to him also developing). Production has gone in the opposite direction for Friesen who is now quite a bit more productive in Allsvenskan than in the AHL. Cederholm was playing 18:45 for AIK last season. It's 4th in TOI with their most used D at 19:40. They seem to dress 7Ds. He got sent to the ECHL to start the season but has been recalled mid-November. (*) The SHL expanded for the 2015/16 season - going from 12 to 14 teams while Allsvenskan stayed at 14. Allsvenskan is an open league at the top with the SHL, but also at the bottom with their 3rd tier league. Like every season they went through promotion/relegation rounds but with two more teams making the cut. They moved two teams at the top and replaced them with two teams at the bottom. With two additional teams it opened up more opportunities for the better Allsvenskan players to find a team in the SHL instead of staying in Allsvenskan.

SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Dahlén with a goal and a primary assist today as Timrå leads 2-1 going into the third period against Vita Hästen. He’s two thirds of the way through game 20 of his season and he has 24 points (11 goals and 13 assists). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, when he ended that primary point streak, it pretty much ruined my day. Good to see him back on track. Sets up the game tying goal, scores the game winner, and then turns the dial down individually so that his teammates can have a chance to contribute an insurance goal. Timra wins 3-1. One of these days I’ll take another look at his season in terms of his close situations numbers. Last I checked, his production was pretty remarkable in terms of his share of primary points on Timrå’s game tying and game winning goals. He’s been very clutch this year, as well as producing just sparkling raw points per game. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, Wikipedia hasn’t updated the qualification rules and still lists the format from 2014 on some pages. But basically, there are 14 SHL teams and 14 HockeyAllsvenskan teams. The bottom two SHL teams are forced to play in the SHL qualifiers. The top two (regular season) HockeyAllsvenskan teams play in the HockeyAllsvenskan Finals, a best of five series, with the winner advancing to the SHL qualifiers. The Finals winner then plays a best of seven series against the 14th ranked SHL team. The winner of that best of seven series then advances to the next SHL season and the series loser is demoted to HockeyAllsvenskan. The loser from the HockeyAllsvenskan Finals (the best of five series between the top two HockeyAllsvenskan teams) plays a best of three series against the winner of the HockeyAllsvenskan Playoffs (a round robin tournament between the HockeyAllsvenskan teams ranked 3-8). The winning team (of the best of three) then plays a best of seven series against the 13th ranked SHL team. The winner of that series advances to the SHL next season and the loser goes to HockeyAllsvenskan. About as clear as mud? Wow!!! That sounds much more exciting then what we have in the North American leagues. Edmonton would’ve demoted to ECHL long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost a point every 2 games. About the same as Matt Cullen and better than Marcus Foligno or Alex Burrows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was he could have been a better player if he could process the game as fast as he could play it. Lol Don't get me wrong I loved Raymond. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Raymond's big chance to excel was when he was on a line with Kesler and Grabner - that was an amazing, lightning fast line that drove other teams nuts the few times they were allowed to play together. For some reason, Vigneault didn't seem to care for them as a unit. Don't know why, they were always breaking up the ice with the puck and blasting around the defensemen on the other team. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
