Heaton 1 Report post Posted May 9, 2006 He's a UFA at seaons end. Hits like a truck, led the league in hits for a good while then fell off a little bit. He has no offensive upside, he has limited mobility, but he's big, YOUNG and hits like a mack truck. He's also SWEDISH. http://www.nhl.com/players/8468114.html Lidstrom/Lilja Kronwall/Murray Schneider/Chelios Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norrisnick 1 Report post Posted May 9, 2006 Übertap for the win! Actually I believe he got hurt somehow, but his hits/game pace was unreal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rage 24 Report post Posted May 9, 2006 Wow, 110 hits in only 33 games?!?!? That is crazy. He had 7 hits against the Leafs alone in one game. I like this kid already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rice 42 Report post Posted May 9, 2006 Sign him! Another swede to add to the collection. I'd like to see him next to Lidstrom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hatcher#2 13 Report post Posted May 10, 2006 I watched him play against the Griffs earlier this season, he hit everything in sight that game until Bootland tried to take out his knee with an open ice hit. They dropped the gloves and Bootland won. He isn't great at the fighting side but like you guys have said he hits everything and he hits it hard. It would be great to have someone on the Wings with his size that actually uses it. I would be all for this move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heaton 1 Report post Posted May 11, 2006 ABL.....Anyone But Lilja! I'm just hoping that whatever defensemen we get drasticlly reduces Lilja's minutes, because like it or not Lilja is in the Wings plans for at least next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Asia13 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2006 I say sign him but just one question. Is there any speculation that Kenny will sign him? like rumours or sites saying Detroit wants him? cuz on a Sharks board they seem to like him very much so I can't see them letting him go. Anyway, he's definitely on my wish list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
