Though I'm not one to talk. I voted for Ronni, who also had a pretty bad season. Just kind of like the player.

I just looked up his stats, and he finished tied for second place on his team in points for Rögle BK J20 in 2021-2022. He got called up to Rögle BK and got 0 points in 6 games in his first time ever playing in a men's league. I don't know that I would call that a terrible season.
2022-2023, he played only one game for Rögle BK J20, scoring three goals. Then he was moved (traded? loaned? transferred?) to Brynäs IF J20 where he again only played one game and got three points. He was called up to Brynäs and then got 8 points in 45 games as a 19 year old.
Given that J20 Nationell is their "AHL" and SHL is their "NHL," it would be like a guy lighting it up on the Wranglers but only getting 8 points in their first 51 games for the Flames. (Having said that, I'm not comparing quality of play at all. I don't know what the difference is in quality of play between there and here, other than I know that there (naturally) would be a difference).
At any rate, when I look at it in this context, it's not that bad. I'd be more worried about his SHL production if he was a top-10 pick, but at 45th overall I don't think there's much to worry about yet. I do think he needs to make the jump to the Wranglers this year though (which I think has already happened, or is in the works or something).
