A primer on Swedish Hockey Leagues and how they all fit together

During Ron Hextall’s tenure as a general manager, there wasn’t a lot to be happy about with the Flyers. One of the few bright spots over the past few years has been following all the great prospects the Flyers have drafted all over the world. They’ve found quality talent in the Swedish leagues with the likes of Oskar Lindblom, Samuel Ersson, and Felix Sandström and today we’re going to dive in a bit deeper on the Swedish hockey leagues and how they are setup and how good the leagues actually are. Trust me — it gets pretty complicated.
