Interesting Norwegian forward I saw while perrusing Elite Prospects. He had a hell of the start to the season and is a late ‘05 so he isn’t draft eligible until 2024.

Can anyone inform me more about this player?

10 points (6 goals) in the first 5 J20 matches this year.
As a Norwegian I am really excited for him and Stian Solberg who plays for Vålerenga.

Hopefully he gets in some Allsvenskan games this year - I’m exited to see him play and if he can continue his current pace

Rooting for Norwegian hockey.. little disappointed no one took a 7th round stab at Martin Johnsen.

Solberg has been on my radar for a while now. He is legit, looks to be a potential first rounder.

Yeah, I was that as well. 2 goals and 1 assist in Mora J20s 4-3 loss today. 13 points (8 goals) in total for Nygård in the first 6 games, what an insane start.

Yeah, he is really good. People in Norway was takling about Gabriel Koch last year, but I thought Solberg (who is almost 2 years younger) was just as good in the games he played for Vålerenga before he broke his collarbone. He has started this season really good as well, so young but it looks like he has been playing senior hockey for 15 years

Saw some clips recently and he is certainly looking promising. Finally a really good prospect from Norway? I sure hope so. I assume he will get a good look in HockeyAllsvenskan once it starts up. Mora does not have the deepest of rosters.

Does anyone have a scouting report and do his skills translate to higher levels?

 

[theslatcher]

Seniors debut in 16 minutes.

 

[Joka12]

Just scored his first goal for Mora in Hockeyallsvenskan:

Looks really good for a 2024 eligible. @Webster can follow this guy when Zuccy retires

 

[Joka12]

2 assists for Mora A-team today.
Maybe we finally can get a Norwegian drafted in the first round in 2024. That would be the first time ever. The current record is from 2002 when Marius Holtet was drafted as number 42

There might be two Norwegians drafted in the first round in 2024, him and defenseman Stian Solberg.

I would have Solberg ahead at this point in time too.

Great year for the nation.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Nygard makes the between the leg move along the boards that leads to this goal.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Great year for the nation.

I believe Norway won the WJC D1A this year as well, so if the promotion/relegation is back in play, we will get to see these 2 kids at the main WJC next year.

We do!

Great for them to put their skills on display.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Out 3 months after knee operation, gonna miss U18s obviously, big blow for Norway and a missed
showcase opportunity.

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

He definitely looks to be projecting well I'm excited.

 

[ValeriKamensky]

So what about his style of play? Of course early, but probably someone can say about his NHL prototype?

 

[WeThreeKings]

Watching this guy as a potential Habs pick high in 2024.

 

[Joka12]

Some clips of him:

 

[Castle8130]

Some clips of him:

Wow, that kid is filthy! Has a physical edge too. Looks like a typical Florida Panthers player

 

[Haanz]

It looks like Nygård is ranked as a mid-late 1st rounder by many outlets. I think he will be a big riser this season. I have him in my top 5 on my super early list. Love his game.
