Linus Lindstrom wants to earn a bigger role in the SHL

You could be forgiven if you forgot that Linus Lindstrom was still in the Calgary Flames system. The club’s fourth round selection back in the 2016 NHL Draft, the two-way center has been plying his trade in his native Sweden since his selection. But while he’s been focused on rounding out his game, he’s got an eye on the NHL.

The 21-year-old product of Skelleftea, Sweden has spent the bulk of his hockey-playing life playing for his hometown team. The upside is he’s played three full seasons since being drafted with Skelleftea AIK of the Swedish Hockey League.
