He is kind of a cross between PF's and two-way, gritty guys.

Somewhere between the likes of Franzen and Hartnell and Landeskog and Steen.

This year he has kind of played a bit like a slower Blake Wheeler stylistically. Good on boards and round net, but not overly nasty, and great play-making.

He kind of reminded me of Patric Hornqvist in the past. He doesn't agitate like him though so not a carbon copy. But just the sense he does a lot of damage around the net & down low.

3-1 win for Lindblom and Sweden over a very good Russian team.

Played a very good game, goal, +1 while playing 1st line RW and PP1 (netfront/slot).

He also had a shot turned away on the PP in the 3rd walking in from blue-line and firing high blocker.

And had two nice passes for chances. First was overlap with Omark then a feed cross-crease than was denied by great save. Second a nifty pass off left boards to let ex-Flyer Gustafsson sneak into slot and fire good shot that was met with a nice save.
