steveoath Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 (edited) Not much on him. Just a sniff at SHL with Malmo Redhawks where I presume he will stay in J20 to begin. Big guy though. Edited July 24, 2021 by steveoath 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 I really hope this kid makes it and becomes a mainstay. The joy we will have with the Baron von Barnekow-Lofberg. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunomatic Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 my first thought was this has to be a joke but apparently not. With that name he should have gone to the Kings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 Not a center. He is a winger please update the thread. Not that it really matters. This kid will never playin the NHL. I shouldn’t say never, i should say he has a 10% chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spun Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 Former wrestler Waldo von Erich immediately comes to mind. Also another wrestler Kurt von Hess. So I am hopeful that there are some turn buckle slamming skills in the pipeline... We need some feisty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know what the Bills were thinking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
