Where will Liljegren play next season?

If the right team picks him in the Import Draft I think he plays there.

As always a few surprising names nobody talks about. Lycksell looked good when I saw him but I was surprised that he scored so little during the season so I thought he wouldn't go. Nice potential. No clue on Arvid Holm. 193 cm of course but goalies like Åhman or Brattström looks to be way better.

Fun to see Aho finally! Why could he be drafted in his fourth year? Thought it was three years.

He started scoring points late in the season, and finished off really strong in J18 Allsvenskan/J18 SM. Maybe that's what got him drafted.
