I posted in your draft day thread too.

But really like this player.

I think very good value even if an over-ager. Should have gone last year and has improved since.

Though do want his production to match skills at some point.

I think he's an overeager. Came up in some of the draft sims and I remember looking into him thinking he looked decent

Vita Hästen is a classic club that went bancrupt in the late 90's and disappeared from the high tier divisions.

Pretty cool to have drafted a player from the club. Name means white horse.

Blurb on Lyckasen from POTENTIAL LATER ROUND GEMS - DEFENCEMEN:

Skating is Lyckåsen's calling card and he is not afraid to leap up into the rush and try to create a play or generate offence. While he is still learning when to pick his spots in this regard, his confidence and willingness to help push the puck into the offensive zone has paid off for Linköping on many occasions. In 43 games in 2019-20, he picked up 14 goals and 36 points with a plus-15 rating. In addition, he played four games with Sweden's U19 squad, posting nine points in that span. His play in his own zone is a work in progress but with an active stick and a knack for positioning, this area of his game continues to develop. The defender is slated to play for HC Vita Hästen in the HockeyAllsvenskan league in 2020-21.​

Lyckasen's been averaging 16+ ATOI since his move to Karlskoga. Here's his goal from today:

Off to AIK after scoring four goals/five points in the 9 games he played in the Allsvensken playoffs. Season wise, he's going from the #3 team in the regular season down to the #9 finisher.
