But I don't speak Swiss.
Me neither. But then I clicked on the post and went to the twitter page, hit the google chrome translate option, and it looks like it says he signed a one year deal with Leksands for next season.
I see he took a big jump in production last year, finishing second on the team in goals & points. I don't know anything else about him as a prospect, though, and if he's considered legit or not.
I was. But it hasn't been working out well for me lately. I think I'm gonna go back to lurking for a while.He is legit. He's fast but not small - he's 6'2" and goes into traffic areas in the SHL. There is a nice player there to see what they have.
And I think the person you quoted was trying to be funny.
Deadline to sign with the Sabres is mid july I think. New agreement could stipulate that he should be loaned to the SHL instead of rochester howeverSo nobody wants to play for Rochester next season apparently.
Anyone know if he is at camp? I don't see his name on the development camp roster and haven't heard anything about him since he signed.
It's almost like we have 20 2nd and 3rd rounders performing well in the system. Cederqvist is a 5th, Kozak 7th round, Weissbach 7th, Rousek 6th, Novikov 6th..Cederqvist has really jumped out to me these last few weeks with the prospects challenge and tonight's game. I guess he sticks out because I really didn't know anything about him or kept a close eye on him when he was playing in Sweden but the kid has legit potential. He's big, good skater, good net front presents and doesn't mind getting physical. Hes been a huge surprise to me. Cant wait to see what he does in Rochester next year.
I think it stands out more because he was playing in the SHL which isn't really known for its physical play. Sweden produces a ton of great players, but I think most people (or maybe it's just me) generally associate them with a lot of skill but not a ton of grit. Dahlin and now Cederqvist seem to be bucking that trend which is awesome.Cederqvist has really jumped out to me these last few weeks with the prospects challenge and tonight's game.

Look what happens when you invest in the right kind of scouting department. I suspect GMs are going to take notice and it will be tough to keep this group together.It's almost like we have 20 2nd and 3rd rounders performing well in the system.

Lots of guys (E: every player) from 2021 performing well and an early good looking 2022 as well
Its nuts to think that Cederqvist, Rousek and Weissbach were late Botts draft picks but no doubt Adams and company have done a great job properly developing these guys.Look what happens when you invest in the right kind of scouting department.

Also, hats off to KA, who seems to have found the sweet spot of getting often competing scouting approaches to find a middle ground with one another and come to agreement (analytics, live viewing, references from amateur personnel like coaches).
I think it comes from the fact that they just don't fight? Swedes have always seemed tough to me...they just culturally seem to focus on the glame play more.It's weird, since gritty Swedish guys are definitely a thing and have been for a while. Few are those who just get by on skill alone any longer, that's an old, old stereotype.
