Apparently Borgman crushed everyone at the physicals.

How's he played?
looks like he's getting more comfortable as he goes, carried the puck a bit more on Monday night. Some of those he was carrying for too long and got stripped, but he showed some hands and some talent - might not be a bottom pairing player forever.

Other than that, laid the body one time on DeBrincat that he got a penalty for interference on where it turned out DeBrincat did touch the puck, so clean hit and laid the cat out. Effective without the puck and didn't get beat outside or inside often, looked more than adequate as a bottom pairing guy with upside for more

Any one have a report on that other Swedish Dman we were reported to be interested in (Filip Holm)? Did we make out better with Rosen and the Borgieman?

I've been impressed with borg. His physicality is nice to have. The fact that he skates well and looks like he's getting more comfortable handling the puck. It's very early and has playing on the bottom pair but I definitely see some serious upside. And if this is his peak potential, he's a very nice 5/6
