Prospect Info: 2024-25 Ducks Prospects

Seems like he’s kind of a problem.

There's a lot of weird messaging coming from the team.

Latest: Solberg has asked for a change because he wants to play hockey. He does not want to wait for a senior player to be out. Färjestad considers a loan to a team in the Allsvenskan league, 2nd level below SHL. Rumors say Vimmerby HC could be his destination.

My opinion: This Sweden plan doesn't work for Solberg. The Ducks should bring him home and let him play for the Gulls. Allsvenskan is a step in the wrong direction. Btw...it was Solberg who wanted to play in Sweden.

Ya Anaheim prob should put in him AHL(assuming he’d be okay with it)

Ahl is built for his style of play…. Start getting him used to NA hockey and culture.

There's a lot of weird messaging coming from the team.

What’s weird about it? They’ve been saying he needs his minutes limited because he’s young and he’s sometimes too aggressive, essentially. That sounds about as bland and normal as can be.

Lack of patience perhaps, I didn't expect this to happen. Färjestad's coaches have said a lot of positive things about him. He's always full of energy and the process can't go fast enough, so I guess they're trying to slow him down a bit.

But again, he's in the wrong league imo. Even though he plays a physical game, he doesn't take many penalties, his hits are always clean. But they'll still keep him on a leash there.

I think I might be misunderstanding the messaging. I was under the interpretation that they were completely against sending him down and were limiting his play to prevent exhaustion. He hasn't really played since then, and now everyone seems mad.

Can’t we just have one kid develop normally.

I'd be a lot more concerned about an 18 year-old who was content to be scratched than one who wants to go somewhere where he can play.

My biggest worry about him is that he is playing in a league that is too advanced for an 18 year old defenseman. North American junior hockey would be ideal for him this year and then on to the AHL next year.

The home run type of pics do not look like home runs atm. Talking about Solberg and Pettersson.

Madden used this description for Pettersson btw

I am genuinely confused about why people think an 18 year old being overeager to play is a negative quality.

As am I. I'd be frustrated too, if I were him. He's a hockey player. He wants to play hockey.
