Can’t believe Hallam moved a 19 year old winger that has next to no experience at center to center and he came out looking like a genius.

As both @Unsustainable and @AhosDatsyukian said, my reference was how Aho became star when he was thrust into the center position between Laine and Puljujarvi during the 2016 IIHF Juniors tournament.

Wait, was he not a C before then?
I know he wasn't originally a C for us, he was a W, but I was always thinking that he was originally a C we played at W to start
EDIT: Guess not...man you think our hot taeks are bad...check out this stuff...

Well to be fair Rod didn’t think Aho was a center, and it seemed that way for awhile after Aho was playing at center successfully. He was pretty begrudging about it.

Deservedly made the preliminary Worlds roster. Remains to be seen if he is registered (to be sent home if more NHLers arrive), but the way he has been playing he should be registered.
What about his recent play on the National team that you like?

He's just such a smart player who applies his IQ to all three zones. A very cerebral, and deceptive, player. Started to shoot the puck throughout this stint, will go to the boards, and has nothing against playing net front.
Heck, his by far biggest issue with the NT has been his faceoff ability, but can you blame him?
Sure, he gets out-muscled along the boards right now but he's tenacious so he gets right back to it.Not registered against the United States, but don’t get discouraged and watch it anyways because you’ll get to see possibly the worst player a swedish national team has ever iced in the world championships in Linus Johansson. I suggest you all tune in, it’s gonna be a horror show. He’s gonna get exposed so badly that he’ll need therapy for the rest of his life.

Rod can fix his faceoff percentage.
Scratch that, the swedish hockey federation decided not to gamble and wait for possible second round additions (which seemed unlikely) so Felix Unger Sörum will represent Sweden at the worlds!

Explained in this article in great detail...the short of it is his mom is Swedish, he moved there when he was 7. Can get Norwegian citizenship if he wants it. https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/carol.../felix-unger-sorum-the-nhls-youngest-prospect
@EK47
I didn't see him on the box score for yesterday's 5-2 win nor does he show up on the list on the overall roster. Did he get hurt or was dropped?
He’s in the roster but was a healthy scratch for the US game. They release the lineup for tonights game in a couple of hours and it’s against Poland so there’s a decent chance he’ll play.
No FUS today either. Sorry boys.
Probably because no Muss in the lineup either.

Makes his Worlds debut in under 2 hours.
13F, so far Hallam has played the dressed 13F for a grand total of 1 shift through 2 games, so don't expect much.

Has only had two shifts so far, he’s been absolutely brilliant in both though.
