Sorry but I'm gonna have to root for this guy to fail just based on his name.

His edges are fantastic and so is his puck handling. Very slippery player, looks exactly like Jesper Bratt at the same age. He'll need to mature a bit, hangs on to the puck for too long. Probably a winger long term but he's played way more at center.
Almost as good hands and vision as his dad

And I thought I was going to be able to get the joke in first.

His fathers instagram is gold. Making fun of hockey parents.

Scored his first SuperElit goal of the season in the first game of the season during 4v4 play in a 6-2 loss.

Gotten off to a nice start, 9 points in 5 games, leading the #2 on his team by 4 points. Played last 2(or is it 3?) games on the wing.

Up to 28 in 23 now, second in SuperElit Norra scoring(7th in SuperElit overall), and second in U18 in SuperElit scoring, just 2 points away from Nybeck.

Had his SHL debut today, as a winger on Djurgården's fourth line, 8 minutes ice time, 1 SOG and was on the ice for one GF. Oh, and registered 2 hits.

Playing with Josefson, & Widing today on a line reported as the top line, but should be the second line under Holtz-Berglund-Axelsson.

Takes after his father in that department, had two hits in his first shift too, as for his skill that must come from his mother.
Was boarded at the start of the 2nd where he missed ~10 minutes of game time, but ended the game with 14:37 TOI. I could very much see him stay up in the SHL, only negative is he needs to buff up a little, but that hasn't really stopped him yet.

Loved seeing his father with the beer and Djurgården scarf in the stands, absolute legend.
I would like to see him as a Center long term, but if Djurgrden persist with using him at the wing, he has nothing more to prove as a winger in the Superelit. Looked good enough today, might as well keep him up.

After barely getting to play last game, with Daniel Widing not being able to play he'll get to play alongside Josefson again, and this time Strandberg will be the 3rd player on that line(which on paper is a stronger line than the one he played on last go around with Josefson).

Talangen är på väg att spela till sig ett rookiekontrakt i DIF
Djurgården's coach talks about him. Expects him to fight for a roster spot when everybody's back, along with some praise.

Is he related to the shitty Eklund that creates bogus rumors and somehow has a prefix on the Trade section? That Eklund?
