DetroitRedWings.com’s Dana Wakiji wrote an article about Wings prospect Jonatan Berggren, who impressed at the Wings’ summer development camp:
“He’s a young kid, he led the Swedish Junior league in scoring this year,” Detroit’s director of European scouting Hakan Andersson said at the draft in Dallas. “He’s on the team that’s going to play in Kamloops (World Junior Summer Showcase), World Junior teams, the first tournament before the big one. We’re happy.
“A couple of teams came up and said they were planning to take him right after us. Montreal was one of them.”
Playing for Skelleftea AIK J20 in Sweden’s SuperElit League, Berggren had 18 goals and 39 assists in 38 games.
“I’m a skilled forward who has much speed and likes to make plays, play in the offensive zone,” Berggren said, describing his assets.
Sounds like he has potential, good pick for the rebuild
Is he moving up to the SHL?
He sounds like a smaller version of Tatar.
