SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Gunnarsson signed an extension (happened a couple weeks back) with Frölunda that runs through the 2019/20 SHL season. https://www.frolundaindians.com/artikel/n9lnaj7t4-24601/nytt-kontrakt-for-gunnar IIRC, we maintain his rights until June 1st, 2021. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derp... Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Probably for the best at this point. He can learn the game in the SHL and come over if he progresses well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this path for a late rounder. Physically this guy is ready for NA, SHL is a damn good league to work on his skills in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also like the commitment Frölunda is making with the deal running through 2019/20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted January 23, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2018 Been pretty quiet in here so I figured I’d post a highlight, even though it’s from a couple weeks back: Gunnarsson (#6 White) is the one who crushes the player into the boards, waits for the retaliatory crowd, starts mucking it up in the scrum, and then pulls one opponent out and just beats him down. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow I like the thought that JB drafted a guy that learned to hit in the SHL. Timing for hitting has to be harder with the bigger surface. Maybe Gunner could be the next Ulf or Kronwall. It was a clean hit and glad he can stand up for himself. Nice to see a swede play a physical game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpn1 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I maybe wrong but I don't recall seeing a lot of fighting in the SHL. I was hoping he would be Utica next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough hockey people see beyond his stat lines to consider him to have an upside.

TOI average for the season is 10:11. Which is more than the last two years. Season high is 17:20, from a month ago according to his game log. Seven games left in the SHL season to crack that goose egg... but yeah, he must be doing something right to stay in the top division all year long. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theo5789 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Perhaps he's one of those guys that you pair with a good offensive dman (eg Methot) or he could be a solid bottom pairing type (eg Polak). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do you find the TOI stats for SHL ? I like stats, but take most of them with a grain of salt. Too many variables. For me TOI has more meaning than most other stats. PS.......is there a site that gives AHL TOI ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have to be a guy that scores a huge number of points. I'm just as happy if he's a shut down guy who clears the crease well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s a link to their main stats page: http://www.shl.se/statistik/spelare Last column has each player’s TOI/GP. And if you poke around the menu, you can find all kinds of different stats on SHL.se. As for AHL TOI, the AHL doesn’t track icetime (publicly anyway), so no official TOI stats are available. You can find estimated time on ice (eTOI) stats (which are calculated by plugging the available counting stats into an equation) at places like http://prospect-stats.com/. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole site's in Swedish but you can guess most of the tabs. "Matcher" gets you the game log, "Statistik" brings up his stats for the year. "Media" usually has highlights and such but, well, he has zero points. You can use the search bar to type in whatever player you're looking for and find their pages too. The banner with game scores at the top works similar to NHL.com's, you can click on the matches and find the boxscores with player stats and whatnot. Hope that helps! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
