Can anyone comment on Mattias Samuelsson's game? I definitely didn't expect this kind of offensive production from him (8 points in 14 games).
I've watched 6 Amerks games. To me he is more likely to make the NHL roster next year than Quinn or Arttu. And since he adds a size/toughness element we are lacking, I'd prefer him over Bryson next year. He's 1st pair with Fitzgerald, playing lots of minutes, all situations. So he is getting PP points.
You would think they would want to have a veteran LHD on the team and not go Dahlin/Bryson/Samuelsson...but maybe with the right partners it would work. If they somehow manage to keep both Borgen and Risto
Dahlin-Borgen
Bryson-Risto
Samuelsson-Joker
aint bad at all. Its just really really really young.
