He is also tied with Noel Gunler, and just behind Magnus Paajarvi (0.34), Alex Holtz (0.46), and Robert Nilsson (0.51).

Bjorck's 8 points in 24 games are already 17th-best by a U-18 player in the SHL in the last 30 years.

Bjorck is Sweden’s youngest player and has been one of their best. He has three goals and has averaged 18:17 per game.

He’s also playing center as a 17-year-old and is 39-25 in the faceoff circle (61 percent). Bjorck has looked crafty with the puck, has flashed a ton of vision

He has also looked strong on pucks in battles and just seems to consistently affect play.

He’s got skill, craft and competitiveness, and he’s a top 10-15 prospect in this draft
