Big Norwegian power wing who plays a physical brand of hockey and is well balanced on his skates with a powerful stride. Displays a heavy shot with a good release around the blue paint, and a wicked one-timer on the power play. It is a heavy one-timer from the circle on the power play. His strong worth this is exhibited in the way he often intimates contact. He is a persistent backchecker and exerts strong pressure in puck pursuit, many times causing giveaways that he turned into offensive chances. Dominated the Sweden's U-20 as a 17 year old last season at a point per game pace, and has played a dozen games with Mora in Allsvenskan. He is noticable driving out of the corners and powering to the middle. He lacks East-West wiggle, and not really a polished finesse guy, but after he barrels into the scoring territory, and establishes position in the high traffic areas, he is difficult to move. Hasn't really shown much creativity offensively, and despite the hype as a prospect from Norway, his individual skills and I believe his vision is average, and he amounts to good prospect, not an elite one.
