When he was drafted, there were many of us hoping the Flames would pick Logan Stankoven, who has since gone on to dominate the AHL and looks like he will be an impactful winger in the NHL as of this year. This unfortunately has skewed our perspective on Stromgren.
Since being drafted, Stromgren had very pedestrian numbers in Sweden, followed by a very slow start to his AHL career. He started to improve significantly the second half of last season in the AHL from what I have read.
