I kind of feel sorry for Sven. He was so over hyped, because of his outstanding performance last year, that it must have been a huge burden for him to try and repeat it...especially with his slow, cautious introduction, his constant switching among line mates, and of course his injury.

I have no doubt he has all the tools to be a top 6 NHL player for many years, and hopefully he returns to us as soon as possible.
