After a 2015-16 season in which he scored 8 points in 12 NHL games and 16 points in 17 Calder Cup Playoff games, Oliver Bjorkstrand entered the season with high expectations. The hope was that he could pick up where he left off and be a top 6 contributor.
Things didn’t start as planned. After 3 games, BJORKSTRAND was sent back down to Cleveland. Aside from a 2 game emergency call-up in December, he would stay with the Monsters until February. By that time he had scored 14 goals and 12 assists in 37 games and had earned a second chance with the parent club.
