Nillson headed back to Sweden

[kellmit]

I thought he would mesh better with the other Swedes but it just never worked out

 

[kellmit]

oops I added a L.... it should be Nilson

 

[TheRobotDevil]

i kind of wanted to see him succeed and felt really bad for him that he didnt make it.but he really didnt do anything impressive kind of just floated around.

i felt pretty bad for him..
seemed like a class act and in all honesty on a middle of the road team he'd have probably made it..

there was jsut no room for him.
he's not a checking line guy, and our scorers are hard to top

yeah Nilson's play was not very well.. the rooks outplayed him.. as well as Adam Mair and other 4th liners.. but yeah i'm sure he's a good guy but he was probably the most uneffective guy in the lineup so it was bound to happen

 

[nj_cup]

if they ever let you gamble on odds of him making it...i would of been a million bucks richer! there was ZERO chance of this guy making the team

he was this years pikarenean (who yes i know made the roster last year) but come on now!

 

[kellmit]

ya everybody knew he was a long shot but I was hoping he would do better

 

[devs30rko]

i would have liked to see him succeed. he's not a psycho like pikachu was (speered a guy while celebrating a goal) and was simply looking to resurrect a stalled nhl career.

but there was little to no shot unless he wanted to play a fourth line grind game and compete with mair.
