I've seen him alot here in Sweden. I'd say he's more like Kronwall in his style. He's way more physical then Rafalski. Great skater both with puck and
without puck. AND he likes the big open ice hits.

In terms of how he'll be in the NHL I'm not sure we'll see that from him all that much if he makes it. That style of play can have a tremendous amount of wear and tear that is wayyyy more significant in the NHL as opposed to the Elitserien.

I'm hoping he's a little bit like Tobias Enstrom.

That is probably as close as you can get. Almqvist might be a bit more aggressive though. He know's when to "explode" and not.
