The Red Wings’ decision to send Michael Brandsegg-Nygard back to Sweden is big news there, and Aftonbladet’s Jonathan Pinhiero Diamant and Tomas Ros spoke with MBN’s European agent about the move:
Brandsegg-Nygard is the first Norwegian to ever be drafted in the first round. Now he comes to a Skelleftea team that has started the SHL season well, and is in second place.
“He did a great camp and they were super happy with him. Several good games against NHL resistance,” his agent, Andreas Johansson, told Sportbladet.
He also tells us that there will not be a game on Thursday against Rogle, but hopefully against Timra two days later.
“Now he’s ready to play with Skelleftea AIK this season. There won’t be a game on Thursday, but we aim for Saturday,” Johansson said.
