Prospect Info: C Filip Hållander, Timra IK

[deakka]

Some of the assist in the highlights are really neat. Selling the shot and sliding the pass softly sideways to an open man.

Not sure I've seen that patience and playmaking from either of Hornqvist or Hagelin

 

[McGroarty2]

Did not watch all the youtube highlights, when he goes to the net does he also get tips? or is it all those type of goals only from the youtube video?

He says “Just the tips” but we all know how that goes.

This Kid might turn himself into a 2nd line center based on his age and now he plays, with even better competition this year so he will get used to seeing top notch competitive players so he will develop faster. Thats the hope

 

[rickardr]

Scored two goals yesterday. Great deflection in front of the net on the 2nd goal.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Excellent.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Loving what I've seen from him in videos. Looking like a solid pick for a 2nd rounder

 

[Dominance]

So happy that he and Addison fell out of the first round to us, and that GMJR and the scouting team didn’t fall into the classic trap where teams are repeatedly afraid to step up on such a player. We need this kind of thing to stay a competitive team long-term.

I was looking on the Habs board and most posters would have preferred both our guys than the players they picked ( they had 3 picks in the 2nd round)
Hopefully they continue developing and become solid players down the road for us.

Don't forget Pens even traded up a couple spots in order to snag Buddy Hålly. Still super early, but looking good so far.

Good.

f*** the Habs.

Indeed.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

I really like this past draft's crop of players.

This kid and Kasper are going to be some pretty sweet players on this team in the near future. Not to mention the kids in WBS. I just hope JR & Co fix that massive hole in quality of defense prospects. It's sad to see how deep we were once at that position to being so brutal now. Outside of Addison and the far out hope a few have left for Lauzon and Almari, looks pretty grim.

Yeah but i prefer to be F deep over D deep with how the game is being regulated right now. Good centers became a much sought after thus rarer breed and we literally have a reserve of them (f*** you Habs!), Dmen are easier to get if needed, especially if they're of the stay at home kind. But yeah, let's see how the next draft goes, wouldn't be surprised if GMJR turns his eye

on D if he didn't patch up with trades before then.

Hållander allt närmre NHL – Pittsburgh erbjuder avtal

Filip Hållander har varit en av SHL:s främsta spelare i höst och Timråtränaren Olli Jokinen tycker att forwarden spelar i fel liga. Mycket pekar nu också på att han är förlorad för klubben. Enligt uppgifter till Expressen kommer Hållander allt närmare spel i NHL den kommande säsongen, då...

Could very likely be coming back. Pens have offered him a contract.

Having a breakout season with 27 points in 24 games. Olli Jokinen (yes, that Olli) who coaches Timrå already early in the season said he plays in the wrong league (as in he should be in the NHL).

That would be awesome. Still only 24 and 3rd in the league in scoring.

If I’m him though I’m coming back unless I’m promised playing time.

Always seemed like a guy that Sullivan would like as well. He probably doesnt get shafted like Poolparty has.

"Oh Filip, if only you were born in Boston..."

- Mike Sullivan

 

[Speaker City]

I dont hate the idea of a Pono-Hallander-Pulju 3rd line.

 

[Empoleon8771]

It would be awesome if he came back, would be a great addition to the bottom-6. I thought he left for family reasons though so I'm not sure how keen he would be to come back.

 

[Turin]

Our Filip returns after living amongst the swine!

That’s it! Just tell Sullivan he’s from Boston! Say he goes by “Philip”.

It says in the end of the article "Hållander himself is prepared to make the move with his family".

Don't know what the situation is/was. Mayebe they had sick relatives they wanted to spend last time with. Maybe they wanted a child born in Sweden etc. Family situation might have changed since then.
