Bunch of games today including Big Mo's return!

View attachment 377784

Keep an eye on that Oskar Olausson kid on HV71. Great hands, wheels, good size, sniper's instincts. He's another SHL kid I wish we could nab if we get another 1st rounder this year. It's likely he's a mid 1st rounder in 2021.

Vaxjo has Eliass Petersson's brother, Emil on it. Team's top scorer. Previous AHL experience, former Arizona pick. He might be worth keeping an eye on as a possible FA pickup. Good stats so far.

Linkoping vs Malmo may be a good opportunity for Malmo to get a big W, but it won't be easy. They may be 12th out of 14 in the league but they have a pretty veteran lineup. Outside of our guy I'm not sure who else to watch in this matchup.

Leksands has 2 Slovak vets that are scoring at a pretty high pace in Marek Hrivik and Peter Cehlarik (formerly a Boston pick). I think they might also be worth watching as potential FA pickups.

On Lulea Jesper Wallstedt is the guy to keep an eye on. He's the goalie we're going to read Bench ranting about us needing to pick in 3 months.

William Eklund is really impressing me with his puck distribution skills in the offensive zone. He's the kind of center that's a goalscorer's dream. I'm not sure where he goes in the first, but if this keeps up I wouldn't expect him to go far beyond the top 10.

I hope we get line Raymond-Eklund-Holtz at wjc

Not enough puck to go around! I think we'll end up seeing Raymond and Holtz on separate lines moving forward.

Niederbach and Raymond are Mursak's Wingers today

That's a really good sign for Niederbach. Frolunda isn't the kind of team to just play the kids unless they've earned it and are playing the right way.

Any word on when we can expect Soderblom back in the lineup?

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

1pm Frölunda game right?

 

[raymond23]

You think? Based on their performances together in the past I have a hard time seeing that.

That was Raymond - some other guy- Holtz. Raymond was the puck dominant player while Holtz was the finisher most of the time.

Eklund is looking like he's on their level as a prospect and is also a puck-dominant player.

3 Goals for 3 DRW prospects. 1 for Grewe and a brace for Veleno. DRW players have scored ALL the goals in the entire SHL so far today.

Edit: Lulea scored. Some hack we don't own. Boo.

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

2 goals for veleno so far 10 mins in

 

[Prntscrn]

Grewe

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Oh...that poor dude...

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Here are Veleno's 2 goals. I'm glad to see he's scoring so close to the net but he's deferring to his RW too much.

 

[Ezekial]

Veleno is definitely a true competitor, I see him get juiced every time he's on the ice for a Malmo goal. Obviously in these clips he scored, but other times.

Seider just started off a PP with a bad turnover that turned into a clean breakaway.

Finished off the PP with sustained zone time making good decisions as the QB and getting an assist off his rebounded shot

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

wow frolunda is getting destroyed here the last few minutes

 

[ridilon]

Rough go for this team last few. Getting smacked pretty good.

Rögle is such a great team. Frölunda on the other hand.. feels like a paper tiger, they will probably drop like a brick in the standings. Tough night for Raymond/Niederbach, -3 each.

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

6-0 not even done with the 2nd yikes

 

[SirloinUB]

I think the mistake is an interesting play. It obviously didn’t work out for Seider either way but the speed at which he transitions from puck handling to attempted stick lift really shows how quickly he process the game.

 

[raymond23]

Frolunda is borderline unwatchable even when they're winning

 

[Ed Ned and Leddy]

Frolunda is borderline unwatchable even when they're winning

For real. I try and tune in because I want to see more of Raymond, but jeez they play pretty mind-numbing hockey. Like a Swedish Montreal.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Great game by Veleno. Not just the goals but played really well overall. 20 minutes of icetime, +2.



That team though, oof. Dropped a 3-0 lead into a 3-4OTL.

Seider also solid as can be.

Ouch, ouch ouch at Frölunda. I've been unimpressed with them all season even when winning, something needs to change. Hopefully they shake things up and it can lead to some different linemates for Raymond.

Perhaps Raymond's best sequence of the game:
