LD Philip Broberg - Skellefteå AIK, SHL (2019, 8th, EDM)

[Evgeny Oliker]

He’s already playing back in Sweden?

I’m assuming this is pre-season in SEL

Correct, SHL exhibition game.

Correct, SHL exhibition game.

Hopefully he does well in the SHL this year ,spends next year in the AHL and then to the NHL.

Nice finish for Broberg.

He’s been getting some 1st pairing minutes I remember reading.

Get a taste of NHL hockey at camp and in the exhibition was good for him.

He's also starting to get pp time. This season could be a big one for him.

Still can't believe the Oilers didn't take Zegras

Oiler’s need young D, who can contribute. Looks like Broberg could be a Chychrun type player. They need that moRe than Zegras.

Looking like the right pick now.

Still too early to decide who was the better pick. And too late to sit and dwell on other possible picks. He’s ours now, wait and see what he will become...

Based on what?

 

[Kaners PPGs]

Based on what?

Probably performance. The Broberg pick looks a lot better over the last couple months.

On the top pairing for Skelleftea in the SHL right now as a young 19 year old (he had a summer birthday in his draft year).

He’s in a good spot to develop well in the coming seasons. The reports out of Sweden for him have been pretty glowing.

Except for the fact multiple professional analysts have Zegras and second best NHL affiliated prospect not in the NHL...

What your saying makes zero sense, Zegras stock has gone up tremendously if anything the pick looks even worse than it did when it happened.

SHL .. I was going ,,, what how did Broberg end up in the KHL?

Why are you even in this thread propping up Zegras like you are his biggest fanboy? It doesn’t really matter what draft analysts say right now. In 5 years you’ll have your verdict. By then you’ll have what- a half dozen of his jerseys? lol Are you even aware of how Broberg looked with Edmonton in the bubble and how he outclassed Bouchard? He looked great for being 19 years old playing against men.

By the way, I love Zegras as a prospect and have him on a dynasty team and closely follow him but the behavior of some posters on these forums involving prospects is incredibly childish and annoying.

so? that means nothing at the moment
in any case, Broberg has looked good against men in the SHL despite being exhibition...will Zegras even be playing this year?

You are right new GM Ken Holland has zero future as a GM in this league.......

 

[belair]

Yeah, the Oilers really need scoring centers.

Multiple professional analysts had Mittelstadt ahead of Pettersson as the NHL's top prospect.

Beautiful skating and read on that breakout.

I mean, I'm not going to pass judgement 1 year out and I'm a huge Broberg fan, but how can you say that when Zegras has been nothing but amazing since being drafted?
