Mattias Norlinder, Frölunda, SHL, Sweden
On a struggling Frölunda HC, Mattias Norlinder was one of the few defenders that stood out in a positive way this past week. During Tuesday’s game against Brynäs, Norlinder had two primary assists, when he set up Jonathan Sigalet’s goals. Both assists came in the same fashion, Norlinder driving towards the net but finding an open teammate across the ice.
The second assist came as Norlinder found former Canadien prospect (in contract only) and IceCaps captain Max Friberg. It happened in a similar way as the first assist came about.
