Prospect Info: 15th Overall, Michael Brandsegg-Nygaard

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

More and more I like this pick. I see him filling a role and need on this team. 6'1" 205 or so at 18. If his skating can improve and keep up with the 15-20 points he'll gain in the next 3 years, the Wings will have a RW forward with some size and bite to their game.

I’m glad to see you’re coming around. Welcome to the club! We have fruit punch.

Wasn't ASP on PP1 last year?

If I'm not mistaken, Pudas was injured for a stretch? Opening a spot for ASP.

 

[heyfolks]

I hope he'll score more than 15-20 points, unless you mean pounds

I stood next to MBN, he's a huge man, a power forward for sure.
I can't believe he's still a teenager.

I did mean pounds, 10 thumbs searching for keys over here. (I use the backspace key more than any other.)

PP1 and PP2 almost always gets around 1 minute each in Skellefteå. And if PP1 doesn't get it going during a game or in a stretch of a couple of games, PP2 becomes PP1.

I believe so... their first "Friendly" is on Friday and their first Champion's League game is in 3 weeks.

Only for parts of the season, in the "shooter" role. It looks like he might get the QB role on PP2 now instead, but hard to say because it's so early and ASP hasn't been on the ice much.

It's better that he is on that QB role, and not shooter. It's more demanding and better for development. No matter what the unit is.

Not bad for a guy with no offensive upside lol

I've read that shooting like this is bad for his development because it's not demanding enough, and that he should be in the QB role instead. No matter which unit. This is what I've heard.

Not gonna lie...I kind of like the dawg daze of summer when we're hockey-bored and start turning on each other like wild dogs (moreso than the regular season turning on each other). It feels like a chat forum version of Lord Of The Flies.

Guy has an absolute CANNON

I think that is one thing people dont mention enough when talking about what he brings to the table. Everyone is excited about his physicality (especially me, gawd an I looking forward to watching him and Kasper wreak havoc), but he looks to have a heck of a shot if someone can find him open.

I'm not saying he will be a generational player, but he has really good skills that should translate well to the NHL. Plus if he is a power forward something we have lacked since like TML GM he will be a big fan favorite.

 

[Webster]

MBN's training camp will be interesting, is there a chance he'll actually make the team or sent to the AHL to be available if they want to call him up? Can't send a player armed with a cannon back to Sweden.

Btw, he's only using NYGÅRD on his jersey...looks better.

Piggy backing off this cause icehockeygifs is amazing

This play where he presents himself as a passing option at the blueline, he falls back and gets lost as the transporter enters. MBN trails the play at a coasting pace and then does the stick check move when he enters traffic without the puck, receives, and nearly decided the game on a buzzer beater

Danielson also does the stick checking thing as well. It's a smart disruptive tactic and part of the little things that get unnoticed

OK... But why does #58 look like he's accelerating through quicksand?

Gonna guess the PBP teams were really hoping he would've gone with BRANDSEGG.

MBN and Kasper gonna scrap it up a ton.

Stevie going back to Tampa days usually doesn't like bringing kids in before 20 years old. But because he is a big boy might get accelerated but that depends on how he does in camp.
