New name for the Swede line in Abbotsford and it's definitely positive for the future
Nils Aman was sent down a few weeks ago to grow his game furthermore. In the AHL, he renewed with Swede forwards Nils Hoglander and Linus Karlsson. They've been so successful that they've even acquired a new name for themselves.
Aman has 5 points in 6 games since being sent down, Nils Hoglander has 5 in 8 and Karlsson leads all AHL rookies with 27 points. Abbotsford has been having a lot of success lately and the energy transpires in the locker room as well and it clearly shows in the most recent interview Vasily Podkolzin gave:
�'Ooohh, Swedish House Mafia so good, yeah great guys, great group of players''
Vasily Podkolzin seemed like he's found his pace in Abby as well, he now has 11 points in 17 games. The athmosphere seems to be on a different level down in the AHL and it's certainly a change of pace from what we've been witnessing in Vancouver. Hopefully this positive attitude transfers up to the NHL.
