I heard an interview with Collberg this morning on a local radiostation here in Sweden and when asked what his favorite team was it was the TML so I was wondering is there any chance that he would fall to 36?

I think he goes to the flames at 14 personally, and i have seen debate on his height. At the NHL combine it had him at 6'1 why is he listed at 5'11 here

Tedenby is the better stickhandler but Collberg i slightly bigger and has better hockey sense. Collberg is also way better when it comes to finishing. Their styles are quite different but both are great skaters, Tedenby might be the slightly better skater.
Following him closely this year, I would say that in at least 5 of his 16 SEL games for Frolunda, he either did not see a second of ice time as he was the ''13th forward'' or he played a minute or two.
In the other games when he played, it was usually around 8-10 minutes a game on average and he usually was able to generate chances. For whatever reason, the Frolunda coach doesn't seem to be a fan of his and they had a forward logjam (especially after signing Duchene and Stalberg), which is why they loaned him to the Allsvenskan, where he seems to be playing top 6 minutes and doing OK.
The true evaluation of him should be how he does against his own age group and this tournament this weekend and the WJC coming up will be big tests.
I'm guessing his average of 4 minutes of ice time per game is a reason why so many GMs passed on him.
This is not how you develop a prospect.
He had 6 mins this season!
It's really good for him that he got away from that ****** club. Too bad Ronnberg wasn't coach this season, he would more than likely have gotten proper ice time.

I don't usually disagree with Swedish prospects' decision to stay home, but in this case, you have to think Collberg would be better served in the CHL.

Similar situation was happening with Backlund for the Flames. Darryl Sutter at the time managed to get Backlund to leave his team, and join the Kelowna Rockets mid-season (or thereabouts).

Yeah but thats because Kelowna drafted Backlund beforehand in the import draft, whereas no team holds Collberg's rights
Didn't get a lot of ice time in Frölunda, got loaned out to Örebro where he has been playing more and scoring some goals so definitely a better situation for him than last year.
Has scored a couple of goals (3?) so far in the WJC. Both wristers top shelf iirc. He's kinda streaky, nowhere to be found for 50 min then he just snipes it.
I don't know if my fellow Swedes would agree but he reminds me of André Petersson, but better.

André: smarter, better hands, slower. The guy you want to run a PP
Sebbe: better shot, faster, less hockey IQ. The guy you would like to shot on the PP.
His finishing and offensive awareness has really improved in this year. Last year i thought he was going to be this flashy fast skater that is nice to watch but dont contribute much on the scoresheet, but i guess i can say goodbye to that. Looked absolutely fantastic so far in the WJC. Very nice one timers on the PP and playing good on even strength with good responsibility both ends. Imo he is looking better than Forsberg.
