Jakob Silfverberg and Johan Larsson

[letangerang58]

Wow. Considering that he played a lot of center as a junior and has played the vast majority at left wing with the big team, I just don't get why he'd be listed as RW in so many places.

Is he right handed? If he is that is probably why.

[Big Ev]

worst part is he had 2 posts in OT including one on a Penalty Shot.

Here's an interview with Peter Forsberg, praising Silfverberg (shitty Google Translate, unfortunately).

Okay, here we go: Is Silfverberg a new Foppa? - He he, frankly, the Jacob a different playing style than what I had. But he is absolutely a great chance to become a real NHL superstar.


How do you think he can do in the World Cup?
- Good. He has the most, incredible shot, great spelförståelse and is really sharp on the grill lights, too. There is no reason why it should not go really well in the World Cup as well.


... And in the NHL?
- Even better.


What do you mean?
- With one of those shots, he will be even greater in the NHL. There will be nearer the goal. Just look at Steven Stamkos with his shot, the guy did the 60 goals this year.

Yea he's a righty. That's why they say he's a RW.

When drafting prospects, I always prefer those that are sharp on the grill lights! Drafting those that grill in the dark is a risky proposition; it often leads to getting burned.

haha thanks Sentium .... and if you dont mind what does "spelförståelse" mean?

Edit: and from reading the rest of that interview from through google translate it appears that "Landeskog" means country forest

Which player are you most curious about?

Det ska bli extra roligt att följa Gabriel Landeskog med tanke på vad han gjort i Colorado. It will be extra fun to follow Gabriel Country Forest, given what he's done in Colorado. De är otroligt nöjda med honom där borta. They are very happy with him over there. Än så länge har jag bara hunnit hälsa på honom som hastigast. " So far I have only had time to visit him briefly. "

spelförståelse means hockey sense

That shot was just filthy. We haven't seen a better shot here in Sweden for almost 20 years.
