European Prospect Report: Jacob Olofsson gets on the board with his first goal

Olofsson has had a rough start this season, suffering a concussion late in the pre-season, getting a new assignment with his move to the wing, and seeing limited playing time as the referees have clamped down on two-minute infractions with Olofsson having lost his power-play privileges.

However, never one to shy away from adversity, Olofsson managed to score a nice goal in his fifth game of the season. The big winger showcased his strength when he held on to the puck behind the net, and, after passing it on, taking up the position in front of the net to manage a tip-in.
