One of these things is not like the others...

 

[td_ice]

That's pretty cool. Says a lot about Swedish hockey development.

 

[serp]

Andreas Johnson is not a Top3 rookie.

 

[sufferer]

Thought OP was trolling but he just meant top-3 in points. Colin White also has 26 points, just one less goal than Johnsson.

 

[Johno]

top 3 scoring =/= top 3 overall

 

[StoneHands]

Carter Hart isn't a Swede.

 

[Romkey]

Pretty sure Heiskanen is Finnish

Heiskanen? Hart?

So not true in the slightest.

he's talking about rookie scoring

To be fair Johnsson has 4-5 years on most of them and rides shotgun with Matthews or Tavares. Would still be a fun end result for me just as a novelty.

The former is true but actually Johnson gets 3rd line mins overall. He has played more 4th line then top 6.heck Johnson got 4 points last night on the 4th line.

 

[Jetcetera]

This years rookie class aside from Pettersson is kind of weak

 

[djpatm]

Kylington is picking it up on defense now too as mid season call up.

Yeah no. It's actually one of the strongest in decades.

 

[Tofveve]

Those Swedes are on fire.

Tavares was in on two of those goals, must be a heck of a fourth line.

Well that’s not true at all

Dahlin and Heiskanen are good defenseman. Who’s there after that though?

Matthews, Laine, Marner, Nylander, Tkachuk at forward a few years ago blows this year out of the water

off a line change, jt got some points, box score watching wont always save you.

I swear we're facing a literacy epidemic

I'm late to the party, and maybe I'm wrong, but I'm willing to bet "in points" wasn't originally in the title.

TWO of his points were with Tavares, another was on the PP, that must have been a crazy line change to have lasted for a period and a half. The internet is a thing, you can't just make up BS like that.

It was originally just “top 3 rookies are Swedes”
