Prospect Info: 15th Overall, Michael Brandsegg-Nygaard

[Preposterone]

Interesting MBN interview a few days ago, he fully expects to go back to Sweden after Detroit's camp. I'll leave a link to the interview, but it's not in English. I'll translate the important stuff...

MBN: "We just have to continue training and work hard, develope as much as possible, then I think we'll reach that level eventually. We're not quite there yet, but hopefully one day we'll make it over there in the NHL, and do well."

He keeps talking for both himself and his buddy, but personally I think MBN is closer. I'm not sure why Detroit wants him in camp if he thinks he needs to play in Sweden for a while.

Michael Brandsegg-Nygård og Stian Solberg ble de første norske spillerne til å bli valgt i første runde av NHL-draften.

MBN might look ready to go on the ice in summer hockey, but we shouldn’t forget that he was playing Swedish juniors this time last year. He has yet to play a regular season game at the top level of euro hockey. Him pumping the brakes shows some off ice maturity imo

No MBN in champions league today. Is he on his way to Traverse City?

I think he is.

Zero reason to bench him for Skellefteå.

 

[GoBoltz56]

Isn't there a mini prospect tournament in a few days against Dallas? I think he was listed on the roster for that, so I'm sure he's headed there.

 

[norrisnick]

Yeah the games w/ Dallas are this weekend.

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Yeah the games w/ Dallas are this weekend.

I'm very sad that it's not a proper tournament this year. Only 3 games against Dallas.

So with him coming to camp, there is a non 0 chance he makes the team.

Me too. They only play 2 games now. I wonder if they join another tournament next year instead of this…

I don't expect Becher Danielson MBN line playing like 30 minutes against Dallas, but I like to see it

I’d be surprised to see Becher playing wing

Yes, according to a Norwegian hockey forum he's already arrived there.
Said he can't wait to meet all the guys.

 

[RRhoads]

The first game is today at 6pm, I believe. Can be streamed free.

 

[Pavels Dog]

This time of year I'm always reminded of just how bad the Red Wings beat writers are. Basically total radio silence. The only real updates we get on anything is from european media..

 

[lilidk]

Red Wings and Stars will play two games, with the two teams facing off on Saturday, Sept. 14 at 6:00 p.m., before meeting again on Sunday, Sept. 15 at 2:30 p.m.

App not available in Europe. What else is new..

 

[Dotter]

I strongly feel that in 2-3 year's time, MBN will be regarded in redraft as a top 3 pick for his draft year.

Yzerman jumped out of his seat when it was his selection. The last time he looked that excited was when he selected Seider.

You can get NordVPN or something similar. It's cheap. I don't know if your country has laws against using VPNs.

 

[RRhoads]

I believe it is streamed on Youtube as well

Here is the stream on the wings site. LIVE: Prospect Tournament - DET vs. DAL | Detroit Red Wings

Ah, how much I love the internet for comments like this. Now you start NordVPN (guess what - I already use it, for years) as a European citizen, set the VPN to United States and try to download that App from the App Store. Not working.

I haven’t tried to completely change my region/location settings on my phone yet, to the US, maybe that’ll work..

..but even then, all of this is still nonsense. Why isn’t the app available worldwide in the first place?

If it is Android, you can use a separate Google account with a fake American address.

It's not, and since the iPhone warns that changing location will lead to cancellation of all currently running app subscriptions (whatever the hell that is.. what about people actually moving, for a new job? jeez.. ), I won't be able to get it.

Btw, for that stream on the website, there is apparently no geo-blocking - it just works.

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

Glad you got what you want to watch.
