Impressed so much
Meanwhile, Kent Hughes says the 21-year-old Swedish striker is the big positive surprise for the Montreal Canadiens in North America.
– I think his qualities are obvious. He can really skate and has a great shot. He’s strong along the edges game-wise in small, remote areas of the attack zone. We didn’t know that at his game when we were three guys, says Kent Hughes.
“Can’t answer Leksand”
The idea is that Emil Heineman will be ready for the next NHL season and that the best way to prepare for that is to fine-tune the details at home in Sweden.
– Some of the things he’s all about are the lines in the skates or the corners in the front check to shut out opponents. There are a few things that are different from the big skating rinks in Europe. In general, because I can’t answer the Lexands, they fall back more on the bigger ice. So it’s about helping him find that middle ground that makes him more willing to play here, but at the same time play into the environment or system that is required of him in Europe, says Kent Hughes.
