I really like this kid, going back to seeing him play in the U-18's. Very good skater with size, and a nice 200-ft game. He was drafted in 2021, but he's still only 19 years old!

This year, in the top men's league in Sweden, he put up 8 points in 45 games for a team (Brynas) that finished in the bottom-2, and was just relegated. Sounds paltry, but that's 7th for U-20 players, 20th in pts/gp. His ice-time was all over the place, from 7:07, up to 17:29.

In his draft year, he was with the MODO organization, and put up 18 pts in 14 games (3rd in the J20 League for draft-eligibles, ahead of guys like Rosen, Dower-Nilsson, Ostlund, Lysell, and Forsell), and even had time in the Hockeyettan (Sweden's ECHL, with 12 pts in 11 games, where he was 3rd for draft-eligibles, 1st in pts/gp). Since his draft year, he's been with Rogle (J20 mostly) ,and Brynas (mostly SHL).
