Lamoriello says it Liljegren will either be playing pro in Sweden or with the Marlies next season. One or the other.
Keeping him with the Marlies would be an interesting move. General wisdom says he goes back to Sweden for a year, but if the Leafs feel they can reasonably give him the minutes he needs on the Marlies, then makes sense that they might want to directly guide his development from day one.
Also, the last thing you want to do is bring him here and quickly find out he isn't quite ready for the AHL just yet, so that's a tough call.
