Scouting Report
The Swedish defenseman has the size, skill and mobility to become a franchise cornerstone on the blueline. He can lead the rush, or make a play at the blueline and dangle his way past opponents. Though he is not a dynamic playmaker, he makes a fine first pass; defensively, he has the size and skating ability needed to close gaps and make stops.
Long Range Potential: Mammoth all-around defenseman.
