I vote that his nickname be "The Maestro" or "Maestro" for short. Can't wait to see him conducting the play out their for the Note.
Currently, he doesn't look like he weighs as low as 160. And he's been listed as 180 on every list I've seen recently. I think that 160 figure is from 2 years ago. Sometimes they exaggerate the figure to help their cause. But, I dought that he's under 175.He’s currently 6’1 160 lbs. wonder if he’ll grow any more? And hopefully his frame can add weight.
Växjö is My local team and with that the team i support, i watch Every game in the arena or at home. Bokk is A sick talent, in My opinion he might be just as Good as Elias Pettersson in the atleast 2019-2020 season. He is really, really Good. I think you guys have gotten A steal here. His stickhandling and skills is INSANE, better than Elias.
He isn't that fast and is pretty weak But i think that he for sure is going to be A first line player in the NHL at some point, i Can see him become A 80 point per season player. You notice Bokk more in the shifts than you notice elias.

I agree, he has a very good shot.The attention seems to be on his moves, but his release looks outstanding.
Also weird how NBC had him scouted. Talked about improving his speed while Bill Armstrong really talked up his skating and how he can "fly." And Craig Button said he likes to use his body/size to create space inside where he can score goals, but from what I can tell, he's not big or physical and he gets inside via skill and skating. It's like he was such a fast riser that we're getting unusually lumpy reports for a guy who was also considered maybe a bit of a faller.

Noticed the same thing as well. It was a bit strange.The attention seems to be on his moves, but his release looks outstanding.

I like the pick, even though he's far away from joining The Blues' "varsity". He's played only 15 games in The SHL. That's really the only high-level competition he's played in. He needs to learn to play tougher, harder and smarter without the puck, and learn to play defence. He's at least 3 years away (maybe 4). I think he made a mistake by turning down Prince Albert of The WHL, and choosing Sweden. He needs to play a couple more Juniors years at a high level. He's got tonnes of offensive hockey sense and loads of skills (especially shooting and stickhandling). He's got tremendous acceleration, which despite his above average (but not excellent) long distance skating speed, elevates his overall skating level into the "good" classification.
He should have been taken in the 17-20 area. So, Bill Armstrong did well. It's not a problem that he'll take 3 years + to join The Blues, because The Blues have plenty of good young RWers. In 3 years, they'll need his combination of skill and entry-level low salary. I'm fine with the pick and loss of pick #76, given who was left on the board.
