From what I've seen he's got a little more upside in most areas over the goat. A bit bigger, a bit more aggressive, a bit more creative.

I believe he is the origin of the forumice steal meme for what it's worth.

Looks like Mrazek in net on that play based on half of the goalie being outside the net

Nice little trade chip here. If not add him to the pile of potential cheap middle sixers for next year.

#1 in PPG for under 23 yr olds. 21st overall in PPG.

I suspect his perceived value is way less than his actual. So trade Knies for a king's ransom and then Holmberg slides into his spot.

Thought his skating looked a little weak at the Olympics. But I also only watched like 5 mins of Olympic hockey.

Could be yeah, mostly due to his age. This guy screams bland vanilla, solid at everything and elite at nothing middle sixer IF ALL GOES WELL. 37 points in 42 games sure looks sexy though. And the fact that he's a finished product at this age has to attract some teams too.

He comes from the bland Swede school of Hallander, Rickard Wallin and Par Lindholm. From what I've seen of him he relies on his smarts in Sweden and not as much natural skill, not unlike the others.

But he's interesting for sure.

Toronto: Where we take bland & vanilla wingers no one has heard of and turn them into 50+ point top 6 wingers.

Bunting & Kerfoot this year, Hyman, Johnsson

 

[Deckie007]

Not sure I'd call Bunting bland, of all things.

 

[Wayward DP]

he's also more likely to be 60+ point guy

He puts ketchup on everything

On pace for 66 points. Which might more than 60, I'll have to ask Zeke.

that's on pace for nearly 70

Bunting > Antropov

Which, according to the rules of mathematics, rounds up to 100.

Fuck u. Antropov 4 president, king, captain and GM when dubas doesn’t get a goalie and gets fired
