Färjestad just won 4-0 vs Växjö. Solberg demolished a guy, but at least the ref thought the other guy provoked him, so both got 2 mins in the penalty box. Solberg gets more and more time on the ice (11:13). That's good.
Btw...this is interesting about the development plan. Looking at Leo Carlsson's path, does this mean Solberg could play for the Ducks next season already?
Carlsson's dev plan isn't like Solbeg's dev plan. Carlsson was gifted 1st line minutes, Solberg is being developed is a more gradual fashion and working his way back up the lineup after losing trust of the team.
Just me, but I wouldn't put Solberg in the NHL next year if his SHL team is identifying that Solberg is still a dev project. There's clog of LD's at the NHL level, with the top-4 LD spots that could be taken by three youths: Minty, Zell, and LaCombe. I don't like our AHL coaching, mgmt, nor development. The best future for Solberg is to stay in the SHL another season, take steps to dominate the SHL, and then make his way over to NA. I would like Solberg to develop into a top-4, two-way d-man than a 3rd pairing who just hits.
