Has anyone seen any Ollas-Mattsson highlights for this year? Not sure why he deserves a spot over Andersson.

Ollas Mattsson is a stay at home defender that will be counted on to clear the front of the net, and play on the PK. Andersson and Kylington would be a much more offensive players with a lot of time on the PP.
Obviously Sweden feels he can fill that particular role better than Andersson or Kylington can.
Should Andersson or Kylington be on the roster over Aho, Lagesson, Larsson, or Pettersson is the real question and debatable. Arguably those 4 are better 2 way players than Andersson or Kylington.
Forsling would be a lock to make that team after his performance at the WJC last year
