His English is horrible, WTF? Did they stop teaching English in Sweden? Usually Swedish players have been very eloquent speakers. Sundin, Forsberg, Lidstrom, etc.

It does not sound like he knew English before arriving in Canada.


Since arriving from Sweden in 2022, he’s had to overcome a language barrier, but Holmberg has been working both on and off the ice. His English has improved thanks to classes, watching TV shows like The Office, and mimicking television dialogue.
