I clicked the earlier game highlights and noticed that rhett rhokshani guy lol

Haha, Rhett Rhakshani. There always seems to be one guy in college athletics where you feel like he has been at a particular school FOREVER. Rhakshani was that guy for me at DU. Probably just because of the unique name. But every year when the Gophers played DU I found myself saying: "He's STILL there?!" :laugh:

Through three games, Oak has a goal and two assists. He's among three different players tied for second place on the team in points.

Obviously a small sample size, but it's encouraging in comparison to his 6 points in 34 games last season.

He'll be over 0.5ppg this season.

So... I got curious last weekend, so I dug through Farjestad's website and watched their last 10 or so game highlight videos. Through my viewings, I only saw Eriksson Ek once, scoring an overtime winner. Besides that, he was very rarely on the ice. I was watching for #20 like a hawk, but he literally only appeared during one highlight reel play. I couldn't figure out how to track his ice time on the Farjestad website, but is it possible he's not playing much? I see he's on loan to the team, which makes me wonder if he's getting limited playing time.

I was able to figure out the team's top couple lines, and Ek's clearly not on them - I'm guessing he's getting played on the 3rd or 4th line? Nearly positive he's not seeing PP time. This was somewhat disappointing since a huge majority of their scoring seemed to come from their first line (Asplund - Ryno - Persson). Asplund (2016 eligible) was very impressive. Wouldn't mind the Wild picking him up, but he'll probably be gone by the time we pick.

Anyone else have any updates on JEE?

12 minutes TOI/GP.

Two low total games of 1 minute and 4 minutes. One game he was held out. Looks like he was hurt.

Found this on their website during a game, google translated:

'A lame Joel Eriksson Oak has left the ice and came to the locker room.'

Even google knows our draft picks suck...

Hey that Asplund guy... We should consider him for our 1st rounder.

Also had to laugh at Robbie Earl. Dude was awesome in college.
