A small offensive d-man from Insjön Sweden, tiny but famous Leksand municibality of just 2000+ population.

Had a rough start to the season, for his first season in the OHL,
but from late November on, he has been Kitchener's #1 d-man
scoring 4 goals and 23 assists, 27 points in 22 games (1.23), +/- of +23
with 40 sog. - had a 3 (1+2) point game last night

2019-2020: 4+30=34 | +19 | 68 sog | 0.82 ppg

I see him as a great late round pick for the Coyotes, sure he is 2000 born
and went undrafted in 2018 Draft, but still, great pick by the Yotes.

Awesome pick, awesome 7 round steal (200th overall).

I think he is a NHL regular within two years

i probably should of added something like; i bet you 100 bucks that he will, play in the NHL -

PPG through round 1 of qualification. NHL upside there? Does he get signed by Arizona?

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Does anyone anticipate this guy being signed by Arizona?
