Made the preliminary roster for Worlds

Super impressive. He made it over the likes of Holtz and Lekkerimäki.

Of course, this doesn't make him a better player/prospect on its own, I'm sure the coach is trying to assemble team construction with some balance, and it appears FUS' versatility in position and play have made him a more malleable cog than some other selections.

But still...this kid will still be 18 when the domestic European 2024-25 season starts. And this isn't being super young and making Latvia or Denmark or Norway. He made Team Sweden.

Really wouldn’t surprise me if he makes Carolina’s roster this year especially if they don’t renew some of the UFAs. He also almost made the roster at 18 and a couple of days. He’s the perfect fit for Carolina with his two-way game.

He's going to be a future Selke winner.

The last time a winger won the Selke was 22 years ago. I’ve seen you make this comment many times and I’m pretty sure you’re trolling a little but yeah no chance. Definitely on trajectory to be an NHL 2nd line producer though.

I just really like him and wish he was representing his Norwegian side instead haha. But st the same time if he was, he wouldn't have had near the success or development like his swedish peers.

What about centers, though?
