G Olle Eriksson Ek - Farjestad BK, SHL (2017, 153rd, ANA)

[Hammer Slammer]

Hey all,

Thought I'd get a goalie thread going. I watched his game from the 24th (3-0 shutout) and recorded some highlights.



He's played 4 games with the U20 team and is 3-1 with a 1.51 GAA and .947 SV%.

This guy is the 6th goaltender I've learned of for the 2017 draft. All of them seem like quite good prospects as well.

Am I wrong, or does this seem like an abnormally strong draft for goalies?
Skinner, DiPietro, Oettinger, Petruzzelli, Luukkonen, Eriksson Ek.

As both a goalie guy and a prospect guy, I'm very excited. As a Leafs fan, I'm downright ecstatic.

Great video, by the way. Found it on YouTube a few days before I saw this.

It really does seem like a really solid year for goalies.

I'd throw in a few more as well like Dayton Rasmussen in Tri-City, Ian Scott in PA, Jordan Hollet in Regina, Maxim Zhukov in Green Bay and David Otter in SuperElit.
All of this class has some serious potential.

I've heard of Scott, though I couldn't remember if he was a '17 or '18 prospect. I'll have to look into the rest.

Where do some project Eriksson-Ek to go in the draft now?

Where do some project Eriksson-Ek to go in the draft now?

I'd say 3rd round at earliest. Probably anywhere from 3rd-5th round.

Any relation to Joel?

Yes, they're brothers.

1. Swedish goalie
2. Has a brother named Joel, who plays a forward

I like his upside!

Minny is drafting him in the 3rd round, i'm calling it.

Waiting for the stats guys to prove there's a 100% probability of a HOF career.

Well they do need more goalies in the system.

Excited to follow his progress this season, he looked great at the WJSS.

 

[StaalForOne]

Where will he play this season?

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

Where will he play this season?

He's been loaned to BIK Karlskoga of the Allsvenskan. Good place for him to be league wise anyways.
