This must be one of the strongest J18 squads I've seen in a long time, should be favorite for J18 SM regardless if the 07s' play down or not.

Im looking forward to see the 09's Eklund-Aspe and Sundberg mostly, 13 and 11 points in Sweden Selects. But yeah this teams offense is strong

Definitely, especially excited to see how well Eklund-Aspe compares.

I would also say that the D might be even better than the forwards, every single 08 D they brought in is very good.

Excited to watch lots of talented 07's in J20 Nationell.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Top teams in J20? Djurgården looks strong!

Brynäs looks strong, won all preseason games.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Looks like it will be a rough season for Skellefteå (J20).

Looks like a J18 team in J20... It's not even close

Hopefully they'll somewhat turn things around once they get Sundqvist, Bergqvist, Lindberg and Vuollet back from the men's team.

I will be in Stockholm for a week in november. No SHL, Allvenskan or J20 that week unfortunately, but i can attend some J18 region games, i want to see Nacka vs Djurgardens and Djurgardens vs Flemingsbergs, hoping to see Frondell and Bjrock. Where can i get tickets? And also, i don't understand whats the difference between J18 region and J18 National. Maybe they first compete in the regionals and then some teams qualify for the National? Thanks!

Usually there's no entrance fee in the junior games, and if there is, you can pay at the door. And yes, J18 region is the competition in the fall, which is split in four series (Norr, Öst, Väst, Syd). The top 5 teams from each J18 Region advance to J18 Nationell Nord/Syd after christmas (and the bottom 5 face eachother + a couple of teams from a lower division where one team still have a chance to make the playoffs).

Well, you won't get to see Frondell & Björck playing in J18. However you'll be able to get a look at Dorian Eklund Aspe, and perhaps Marcus Nordmark.

Thank you, very well explained.

There's no J20 that week, so i hope they play with the j18 team. Frondell is expected to come back in late october so there is a chance he plays with the j18 in order to gain some momentum. Anyway very excited to see some junior swedish hockey.

Doesn't matter if there's no J20 that week, he's expected back mid-late Oct, which will let him get in ~3 games in J20 before heading back up to Allsvenskan.

Absolutely, the DIF J18 squad is incredibly strong! They definitely have the depth and talent to be favorites for the J18 SM, whether the '07s play down or not.

It’s going to be exciting to watch them compete!

 

[HockeyAnalys]

Can you elaborate on what you mean by “strong”? They play in the Stockholm league, which is considered the easiest of them all. I don’t see the talents you speak of. DIF is known for strictly adhering to a playing system that the players must follow, which is hardly beneficial for individual development. I don’t think DIF is the hottest candidate for an SM Gold.

How would you rank the J18 regional leagues?

The western and southern leagues are always the strongest or most difficult to play as there are more good teams.

North and east must be seen as equally bad?
