One helper so far today on Bemström's goal. Just set the table for another great chance... he's just a guy.

What else have you thought of him? Building on last season?

He's always been impressive with what he does away from the puck, and like last year, the offense still flows through his stick on his line. The difference is that he's not with linemates he's had for years now that his brother and the Flow both came to NA so some of the conversion isn't there, though he's still around .5 points/game. He's going to be a mid-liner, someone who does things that win games that some fans don't understand because he isn't going to be super flashy doing it. The Swedish Mafia invasion will continue and the lineup will bow to its Scandinavian overlords.

Is he doing well at forcing turnovers? That's going to be the measuring stick for middle 6 Cs the next decade or so IMO.

Davidsson and Asplund are definitely not going to be guys other teams have fun playing against.

I immediately thought of Hecht when reading this, and then *BOOM*... the Hecht-bomb was dropped in the next comment :laugh:

So...the exact same production as last year (1 less point to be precise)

He's been very meh and Jonsson-Fjällby has just been awful. Big brother Davidsson has had to carry that line pretty much by himself. He had 3-4 games a couple of games ago when he looked pretty good though. Much higher expectations from him coming in to the season. Points may be similar to last season but I actually think his play has been much worse. Last season they created a buzz whenever they were on the ice, this season not so much.

That line seems so out of sync, especially compared to how they played last year.

I still think it was a horrible pick and the dude is a bust. But i'll happily eat crow if he proves me wrong. His brother looks like a steal though
