Prospect Info: Sebastian Collberg - (Part II: The Collberg Report) Joins Hamilton

[Guilliam]

Did you watch? how was he?

[Endersoldier]

Here's an interesting take from Duchene on Frolunda, Collberg's SEL team:

Interesting. Duchene's a competitor, no doubt about it, and I'd take him for his word.

When practices and game day skates start taking on that tone, I lean toward scrutiny of the coach. Given the talk about the current Frolunda coach(/GM), the apparent likelihood that he'll be replaced sometime in the near future, the performance of the club, and high-profile public statements like Duchene's, it's not unlikely that the coach has basically lost them and needs to sit back in his GM chair and put someone else behind the bench.

No points for Collberg today in a 2-3 loss at Leksand. I think it's time for him to head back to Frölunda now.

Why are you saying this?

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Could be because Frolunda has lost 3 straight, scoring 2 goals in those 3 games. They had also only scored 3 goals in the 2 games before this losing streak.

[Et le But]

Collberg will make Frolunda's 4th line more dangerous for sure.

[neil2005]

Collberg just scored on a penalty shot in the 3rd period of his game today
50:17 4-2 (PS) ÖHK 49. Collberg, Sebastian Pos. Part.: 49
Neg. Part.: 1

[Marc the Habs Fan]

5 goals in 13 games now.

Very nice ratio.

Only 1 assist, but whatever, he's a pure scorer.

[KRM]

Ducene's contract ends December 8, if he isn't resigned I think Frölunda will bring Collberg back.

[KRM]

Two things Collberg hopefully picked up from his time in Örebro;
1. How to score at senior level.
2. How to grow an awesome playoff beard.



Here's the highlight from the game with Collberg's patented PS-move; http://www.hockeysverige.se/article/...sl-arkerivalen

[Teamwork]

He's got some very nice hands!

[Et le But]

Dat backhand

[Marc the Habs Fan]

His backhand is lethal, 2 of his WJC shootout goals were on it too.

[Et le But]

Aberg is now off Sweden's WJC team. Collberg has just become even more important.

Apparently Pontus Aberg will be left off the Swedish WJC roster.

Considering there was some debate on who is better between Collberg and Aberg, that's a good sign.

Geez, how did Et le But beat me to this one. Damn it.

[Et le But]

Beat you by a minute.

But yeah, for anyone concerned with Collberg, look at it this way. Neither is lighting up the Allsvenskan but for two snipers, Collberg has 1 less goal in half as many games. I wouldn't read too much into assist totals especially since Collberg is the more well rounded of the two.

And of course Collberg has been much better on the national team.

So as much as this news isn't about Collberg, it does consolidate that he will have an important role in the WJC.

[dackelljuneaubulis02]

Is Sweden that stacked to leave Aberg off?

Well I don't feel too bad about Nystrom being left off now.

This team actually on paper isn't as good as the last one...I think the issue is they want balance; for instance it looks like Sorensen is going to make it.

Nystrom probably has the same problem Aberg has, too similar to other prospects.

This says he scored. Either way, 7 points in 14 games now. He's maintaining the production level I was expecting.

[Et le But]

Watch him heat up in time for the WJC.

Collberg's shot deflected off Kalle Olsson's ass into the net.
