Very promising prospect. However, he seems to have the Panarin clause that if he doesn't make the Hawks out of camp (and with our defense this thin, how can he not?), he'll go back to Sweden for the year and his contract won't slide.

That's a lot of Swedes for camp.

The Hawks have gotten very international since the 2010 championship team, which was quite heavy on North Americans.

Cheaper?


Sox had/have their Cuban connection, maybe Hawks want their European connection?

Quote:
Forsling is playing a key role for Linkoping at the start of his second SHL season in 2015-16. He is expected to play for Sweden at the 2016 World Juniors after captaining the U20 squad at the evaluation camp in Lake Placid. Now in the Blackhawks' organization, Forsling faces stiff competition in securing an entry-level contract and one day working his way into the Chicago lineup one day. He projects as a Sami Vatanen or Torey Krug-type offensive defenseman at the NHL level.

Sooner rather than later I hope.

Stan needs to find another solid player form the KHL this offseason as well.

We still need a #4 D-man. I don't think it's this guy, but I'd rather see someone like this filling out the bottom than a Roszival-like old and bad.
