Red Wings Johansson Making Most Of Chances
While Sandin Pellikka’s elite offensive skills are what have the Red Wings excited about his potential, don’t sleep on fellow defensive prospect Anton Johansson (105th overall, 2022). Skating in the third pairing and garnering just 11:47 of ice time per game for Leksands IF, Johansson is certainly making the most of his opportunities when he’s taking his shifts.
Anton Johansson helped force a Game 7 in Leksand's quarterfinal matchup against Frölunda.
With a goal + assist he's up to 4 points in 6 playoff games. #LGRW pic.twitter.com/2f8auLdDXj

Leksands was facing elimination in Game 6 of their quarterfinal series against Frolunda. Johansson would pot a goal and dish out an assist in a 5-2 victory. Over the six games, he’s been good for two goals and two assists. That ties Johansson for the team scoring lead.
Leksands is using 2016 Red Wings draftee Filip Larsson in goal. He’s gone 3-0-1 with a shutout, a 1.68 GAA and .936 save percentage.
Game 7 between Leksands and Frolunda is set for Wednesday, with a 1 p.m. ET start. The winner of the contest will be opening the best-of-seven semifinal series against Sandin Pellikka and Skelleftea on Friday.

Red Wings prospect Chase Bradley is looking to test free agency this summer, Divver reports in a separate tweet. The 22-year-old was a seventh-rounder back in 2020 and while he has only played three years of college, he’s four years removed from being drafted and thus can leave school to test the open market. Bradley had 11 goals and 11 assists with the University of Connecticut this season in his junior year.
Would be good in Toledo...........

Really starting to wonder if he could be ready by mid-season next year. Not that we believe in call ups or anything like that, but he could be ready.winged wheel wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 9:29 am Axel Sandin Pellikka was awarded the Salming Trophy for best Swedish born defenseman in the SHL.

I'm optimistic, but I agree with Pop that it makes no sense. What are their criteria?

he was also playing sheltered minutes on the third pairing for most of the season. it feels like they’re going out of their way to award to a promising young defenseman who isn’t going to be around long-term, even though he hasn’t necessarily earned the honor yet. he might not be around next year. he almost certainly won’t the season after. so i can maybe understand if that plays into the reasoning.Pop Zeus wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 1:49 pmMakes no sense.winged wheel wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2024 9:29 am Axel Sandin Pellikka was awarded the Salming Trophy for best Swedish born defenseman in the SHL.
