It always surprises me when you see an interview with a European player and he has no hint of an accent. Although, I guess he's been playing in the States since he was 14, so it makes sense that he'd be pretty fluent by now.



Also, he looks like he has really bulked up since his first rookie camp.



It would be great if he can turn into another great late-round steal because he was undersized at the draft.
This is quite typical of Norwegians, who all start learning English at around age 12. I have known numerous Norwegians living in Norway whose English is so flawless that they could easily pass for native English speakers.
