Prospect Info: 17OA: Axel Sandin Pellikka

[Prntscrn]

Triple OT Winner on the PP for ASP!

Skelleftea now up 3-0 in their first series of the SHL playoffs

Third longest SHL game ever, just 3 minutes short of the longest.

 

[Lampedampe]

To add to that: He played 42 minutes, most on the team. He had a pretty large decrease in playing time after coming back from his injury, he had plenty of games under 14 minutes.

He's up to 3 points in 3 games now aswell.

 

[Holden Caufield]

ASP to the rest of the SHL…

 

[schuelma24]

What amazing experience he's getting right now. Love to see it.

 

[Roomba With a Bauer]

What amazing experience he's getting right now. Love to see it.

My unreasonable expectations continue unabated.

 

[WingsToPick4th]

Just put him in the NHL next year can he really be worse than Petry or Holl?

Walman - Seider
Edvinsson - Pesce
Chiarot - ASP

Honestly, defensively yeah he would likely be significantly worse.

 

[DamonDRW]

Honestly, defensively yeah he would likely be significantly worse.

As if it matters much for us. We anyway find a way to loose so let's at least play some youngsters having potential rather than Copps and Petrys.

We don’t want another Cholowski.

Step off the ledge. A losing streak is no reason to abandon reasonable development paths.

 

[norrisnick]

Honestly, defensively yeah he would likely be significantly worse.

Than Ghost? Maybe? But it'd be hard.

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

ASP needs x1 if not x 2 seasons in GR..

He'll need to learn first to play in the small rink where time and space disappears si much faster, and, it's not like he is a physical menace..

Sept 2026 at best

Makar was 20 and Fox 21 when they started in NHL

 

[DamonDRW]

Step off the ledge. A losing streak is no reason to abandon reasonable development paths.

This guy is good for SHL, good for junior Sweden team, might get serious consideration for WHC. Of course, he can be tried for this lousy Red Wings roster. I mean he can't be worse than Petry or Holl. At least he is going to try as opposed to those guys.

 

[Ezekial]

The NHL isn't a developmental league, it's a league for the best players on Earth. Some players are in that category while still developing, some need to develop more to be in that category. But it doesn't serve players who aren't ready to be in that league.

 

[RRhoads]

Let's see him in the preseason before we put him in the big league.

 

[OldnotDeadWings]

Makar, Fox, Hughes all had the benefit of playing on NA ice their entire lives. The case for ASP being advanced quickly is a comparison with Karlsson: similar range Draft pick, huge offensive upside, a little undersized who was 19 when he came over after one full SEL season (69 games overall), and promoted from AHL to Ottawa after just 12 games (11 points). He diidn't turn 20 until after his rookie NHL season. ASP has had a more productive full season (and overall) in Sweden than Karlsson and the same amount of SHL experience (65 games so far), but he's not the same quality of puck-carrying skater, the thing which has always made Karlsson special. The shot, offensive instincts, creativity are all pretty similar.

A good case can be made to treat ASP similarly and bring him over this summer to start in the AHL and see how it goes. The SY prospect slow-roll might mean another season in SHL or a full season (or two) in the AHL.

ASP isn’t as god as either of them.

 

[RedWingzz]

wrong thread

ASP is sick!

 

[SirloinUB]

He should participate in an NHL training camp and then go to GR or even loaned back to the the SHL unless he blows everyone away

 

[lilidk]

Maybe we draft possible teammate

ASP isn’t as god as either of them.

Statistics tell otherwise. I suspect that your "close look" is better than that but I'd like to see him first among the NHLers in the training camp.

 

[norrisnick]

ASP isn’t as god as either of them.

Neither were they at 18yo.

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Neither were they at 18yo.

I’m cautiously optimistic about ASP but I’m not putting him near the category of perennial all star and Norris candidate. That’s crazy talk right now.

 

[norrisnick]

I’m cautiously optimistic about ASP but I’m not putting him near the category of perennial all star and Norris candidate. That’s crazy talk right now.

I get that. But to that same point, if you're going to compare ASP to players you need to compare him to those players at ASP's age. It's silly to compare him to 24-25yo NHLers.
