Here are a couple scouting reports from Senators European scout, Mikko Ruutu (1) and International Scouting Services (2):
1) "defensive defenceman, big and strong. Competitive, character player."
2) "big, physical defender who thrives in a shutdown role."
Christian Jaros? Or Andreas Englund? Therein lies the dilemma, which is why the duo were ranked 16th and 17th respectively in this year's edition of the T25U25. One one hand, Englund has been a full-time player for Djurgardens for the last two years and has been in a leadership role for Sweden internationally from the U17 level.
