Erixon is a true wild card. The guy is already a dominant 2 way defender in Sweden on one of the best teams in the top league. He is a leader on his team and was a leader for the Swedish Junior team this year as well.
Erixon is probably one of the most developed of our dmen with probably needing another 30-40 games to get into shape.
He is often overlooked, but Negrin is a very polished dman in the AHL. Before his knee surgery he was the most poised and solid player on the Heat roster. And you can already see in the last couple games his ability to control the puck and solid play on the backend.
