Ludvig Rensfeldt
 
A little background, drafted 35th overall by Chicago in the 2nd round of 2010 entry. Was ranked as the 5th European skater going into the draft. Taken 23rd overall in the KHL entry.

So my question is, does anyone have any updates on how this kid is developing? Is he still 2-3 years away? Is he going to be a real gem? Upside? I haven't found much of anything about him other than his stats and the draft information.

I wanted to bump this one, since I'm kind of wondering about this guy as well. I know he had a very good U18 tournament last season, but wasn't able to crack the WJC roster for Sweden. He's dominated the J20 league it looks like, and stat-wise he did alright in his callup to the Allsvenskan this season, but wasn't able to do much in the SEL.

Any information would be appreciated.

This is from people on HFBoards (Swedish posters):

Well, rumour has it he's kind of a doucher and a pest in the locker room and that Brynäs might move him down to an affilliate. Don't take my word for it though. But the fact of the matter is that he hasn't really develloped as well you would want him too so the affiliate roumour might have some substance to it.

Honestly I think he should go to the AHL to get proper development, but maybe he doesn't want to take that step yet. He's a big physical skilled kid, yet seems to be pretty much last in the pecking order from the Brynäs' juniors to get a chance. And he's not subject to be moved by Brynäs afaik since his contract expires. If he's not getting a spot with them, he'll sign elsewhere and not re-sign just to get loaned to Allsvenskan.

But I agree, something feels like amiss. Joachim Rohdin, an undrafted winger two months older than him is on the team and signed an extension over next year, while Rensfeldt isn't on the team and hasn't signed.

That doesn't bode well... No good.

**ck, I traded down to get him too thinking I was getting a possible steal!

Nice update Big EV, as always. :)

Well tbh, he does kind of look like a douche. Damn now not only when we draft to we have to take into account the KHL/SEL/other Euro league factor, we have to factor in how much of a douche bag the kid is.

Drafting gets harder every year.

Here's a tip: don't draft people who everyone says is a steal. In the end they don't turn out to be steals.

Example: every single recent Detroit Red Wing draft pick.

You don't think Pulkkinen was a steal? (if Sentium is reading this thread, apologies if I spelt it wrong... haha)

Not yet, no.

All 30 other teams didn't just forget about him when passing on him for 3+ rounds.
