F Viggo Björck - IFK Täby HC J18, J18 Region (2026 Draft)

I mean, Bjorck has more competition this year than Frondell had last year

In the team, yes definitely!

I think he’s better than Frondell at most things except his shot and physical play.

That's what I have meant when I sarcastically commented about you "not getting the hype around Bjorck" He is a supremely talented player, and a scoring machine. Now, size is a factor and it might limit him, but hype is there for a reason

1st in assists and points for a u17 in J20nationell. 2nd in assists and 4th in points for a u18. 10th in assists and 25th in points all-time overall. There are still 11 games to go and he is 11 points behind the overall leader.
This kid might have the league's all-time scoring record as a 16-year-old kid. Crazy things he's doing. I think this is hype

Could make his men's debut tomorrow, if Klasen isn't good to go.

The interesting thing would be how many points he would have in a weaker team? Like Timrå or Malmö etc. Djurgården has been totally dominating and a lot of the players have statistics that are higher than they probably should be.

And now that Djurgarden hasn't dominated against top 10 teams and Viggo has 15 points while his best teammate has 9, what's the excuse?

No excuses. It was a question. A thought. Which he probably has answered now. Which is great. Only want the best for all the Swedish boys.

Height...
It's no secret that his height will be a factor when it comes to how early he gets drafted. At 5'11 he would be a top 3 candidate IMO. At current listing height, 5'9, it's more difficult to tell.

Here's Viggo compared to his older brother, born 2006:

Age Wilson Björck Viggo Björck​

U16 170 cm 60 kg 171 cm 70 kg​

U17 175 cm 67 kg 174 cm 75 kg​

U18 182 cm 75 kg ? ​

U19 182 cm 75 kg ? ​

So, this spring/summer, it'll be interesting to see if he grows as much as big brotha. But having watched Viggo play two recent games for the Swedish U18 team, on the same line as 6'0" Anton Frondell, I do not see a 10 cm difference in height when they stand next to each other. But hard do tell of course.
