Of prospect-related note from Europe today:
In the Swedish J20 league, William Wallinder didn’t register a point in Rogle BK’s 7-3 win over Farjestad, but he finished at +1 with 3 shots;
In the SHL, Albert Johansson had an assist, 2 shots and finished at -1 in 15:51 played as Farjestads BK won 5-3 over the Malmo Redhawks. Jesper Eliasson backed up starter Henrik Haukeland.
IceHockeyGifs snagged Johansson’s assist…as well as some discussion of Johansson’s potential…
