2019 NHL Draft prospect profile: Albin Grewe — “He is a T-Rex”

“He is a T-Rex”, Djurgårdens head coach Robert Ohlsson says when describing Albin Grewe, grinning like the Cheshire Cat. “Everything below him in the food chain he will just eat up. His whole being just radiates ‘I am the biggest, strongest guy around, deal with it.’ He will devour everything; there are only scraps left when he is done.”

Grewe had just been moved between the U20 team in SuperElit and the professional team in the SHL. From being an offensive dynamo in the U20s and a tough, checking-line player among the professionals in the SHL, both roles worked out well for the big Swede.
