Team Vasterbotten has released their TV-pucken Roster today.
They have a strong team and several players that plays J18 Elite on a regular basis.
Lukas Olander in goal plays J 18 Elite for Bjorkloven.
On the Defense 4 players plays J 18 Elite with Mans Forsfjall and Ludvig Lindstrom having big responsibility in their J18 teams. On a good day I think Mans is one of the best 02 defenseman in Sweden. Ludvig L is strong with a great passing game and a really accurate shot from the blueline. Erik Weiborn and Olle Ljunggren also have J18 experience in last years surprise team in J18 allsvenskan, Vannas HC
Rocky Persson leads the offense with his strong skating and unreal playmaking skills, Persson has played an important role in Bjorklovens J18 Elite team where he put up strong numbers.
Elias Stenman and Gabriel Sall also have played a couple of J18 games with Skelleftea this season. Elias is a hard working two way player with great vision and a good release. Sall is maybe not the most spectacular player but he have very good hockey sense and plays with true grit.
Oscar Nilsson, a player that had a great season last year where he played ten games in Skellefteas J18 team has still not played J18 for Skelleftea this fall. I can only speculate the reason of this but I think the little bit lower pace in TV-pucken will fit him perfect. He will lead his line with his smartness and exeptional vision. He is extremely strong on the puck and its almost impossible to force a turn over from him. Sometimes he display a not so great attitude with very long shifts and non-existing back check.
Other notables are smart Center Jacob Sundin and Simon Robertson, a great sniper with a deadly shot born 03. Henric Arvidsson has also made his J18 Elite debute this fall.
