Yea I heard the Knights might be in on him and that he's definitely going to the OHL even if it's not London.
If he'd accidently said something which was true, i'd be fine with it. He's a kid and not used to the media and if he let it slip.. ok..
But he, when asked about it, says i'm not going to CHL. Which turns out to be exactly what he's doing, that's a thought out lie.
If he already knew that, you don't comment at all.
In this case, refer to Brynäs.
But saying, i'll sign with team xxx and not yyy.
And then 2 days later say i'm going to sign with team yyy.
That's looks pretty bad..
Who knows what's true, he's lied at least once.. maybe the CHL is his next lie.. i'm signing with a KHL team might be his new thing tomorrow.
I just think it's unprofessional.
Or maybe he changed his mind? Kids change their minds about as often as they change their underwear. It's part of being a kid.
He apologized for lying about not going to CHL.....
Dansk has signed with the Erie Otters and will report to training camp later this week.

So his statistics are pretty bad. Is it a product of his team? Can anyone weigh in who watches regularly? Thanks!
I wanted the Flames to draft him back in the 2nd round, not realizing he was drafted so early by Columbus. He seemed to have a promising career, but he's only average in the SHL right now, and I get that goalies take longer to develop. However Forsberg and Korpisalo have already significantly buried him in the depth chart, it's not even funny.
He is still part of the 50 max contracts in the Blue Jacket organization. This is the final year of his entry level contract. You are correct, he started with such promise, but got shelled in the minors after coming to North America. He stated he was going back to Europe to rebuild his game. He has played in the Swedish League last year and currently.
You are also correct that Forsberg and Korpisalo have passed him on the depth chart. In addition the CBJ have a promising prospect that chose to remain in Europe waiting to see how the logjam gets settled. Elvis Mezerklins is the only hockey playing Elvis at the current time. Here is the recent info on Dansk.

Hope this helps.
Would Columbus explore trading him? The Flames don't really need any goalie prospects anymore, but Edmonton, Nashville, and Ottawa could use one.

You point out the two players that have passed him. I would think they would and it would probably be fairly cheap. Not certain how you would plug him into your team, but I doubt that CBJ would re-qualify him come June 30. I don't know if that would make him a Group IV Unrestricted or if he has to go back into the draft. I would guess a low round pick or a depth player would do it.
Probably, but Dansk has no value. At this point in his career he's not a professional goalie.
