This list seems most legit. I’ve tried to follow Brynäs a bit more closely due to having friends that are fans and being in a fantasy pool with a bunch of them, and simply gaining Bertilsson seems to have had a remarkable impact on their team.
Their shots against and quality opportunities against stats were abysmal but has improved as of late. And his addition is seemingly doing great things for them, however their issues are not exactly limited to defense alone, with their two best offensive players out.
The one thing I have against Lundkvist, or rather the one question mark is the fact that he’s not at all relied upon on the PK, however I generally haven’t necessarily regarded him myself as less than second on the team in terms of overall defensive play. He’s very collected and has also begun to assert his presence physically, without the puck, which is lovely to see for someone who saw him debut as a wee 17 year old with obvious offensive upside but lots to improve upon in terms of defensive ability.
Seider has been more of an all-situations defenseman, Persson isn’t though: but Växjö has been a machine lately and Persson had been a great MVP candidate for them, if not for Viktor Fasth and Emil Pettersson.
