The 2019 World Junior Championships is over, and Sweden went home early without a medal after a disappointing quarterfinal loss to Switzerland, the ultimate loser of the bronze-medal game.
In Sweden, the SHL started up on January 5 after a few days off over New Year’s, and Pontus Holmberg was on the ice for Växjö that evening. Erik Brannstrom played for the Chicago Wolves the same day.
But so far, no one has word on where Rasmus Sandin is going to play next. Back in the fall, Sandin impressed most viewers with his play on the Leafs in preseason, and then when he was transferred to the Marlies for their few preseason games, he injured his thumb in his first game.
