nawein 324 Report post Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) Axels stats are eerily similar to Kopitars at this stage in their careers. At 18 in the Swedish elite league: Holmstrom: 44 Games 10 goals 10 assists +6 Kopitar: 47 games 8 goals 12 assists -12 At 17 in the same league Kopitar played 5 games and Axel played 4. Neither had any stats really to show for it. I'm assuming Kopitar for more ice time and harder competition considering he came to the NHL the next season and scored 61 points in 72 games and he was taken 11th overall vs 196th, but if Axel can turn into even half of what Kopitar is he'll be another late round steal.

alkonaut 1 Report post Posted April 2, 2015 I'll just leave this here http://play.shl.se/video/11450762/ (OT goal at ~2:50) Horrible defending, but Axel's flip pass is eye candy. Any similarities with Homer Sr stops with the name, he has a rather different skill set... btw . please leave him in Sweden another year : / 1 Smite reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
