Scouting Notes

Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Jan 2, 2025 · Sweden vs Latvia (WJC 2025) · Video (With Replay)
Excellent vision and feed out of the corner. Nice pass to create a chance.
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Jan 2, 2025 · Sweden vs Latvia (WJC 2025) · Video (With Replay)
Playing bumper on the top powerplay unit in the tourney.

Buzz buzz buzz.
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Jan 22, 2025 · Djurgardens vs Almtuna (Allsvenskan) · Video (With Replay)
So quick, so active, so ready to put a shoulder into an opponent to take him off the puck.
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Jan 22, 2025 · Djurgardens vs Almtuna (Allsvenskan) · Video (With Replay)
Back checking, puck gets turned over on the right boards. Eklund, near the center dot, tops and spins back, gets the puck, drives to the high slot and rips a slapshot on net.
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Jan 22, 2025 · Djurgardens vs Almtuna (Allsvenskan) · Video (With Replay)
Any time I watch him, I'm always floored by how active he is on the ice. Every shift he's touching the puck multiple times, making plays off the puck, driving play into the offensive zone.
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Jan 22, 2025 · Djurgardens vs Almtuna (Allsvenskan) · Video (With Replay)
Joins in a rush, crosses and gets the puck, drives left side, dangles, passes to the crease.
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Jan 22, 2025 · Djurgardens vs Almtuna (Allsvenskan) · Video (With Replay)
Cuts to the slot, but his wrist shot rolls off the toe of his stick.
Note By Brian Fogarty · Game: Jan 22, 2025 · Djurgardens vs Almtuna (Allsvenskan) · Video (With Replay)
Winning all the races to loose pucks, even when he has to close distance and get around opponents. Just lightning out there.

His eyes are always up, scanning and watching, so despite his incredible energy and quickness, he's not wasting movement or chasing the play. He sees, reads, reacts.

Here is an Eklund shift early in the third period: hits the ice immediately into a forecheck, then back deep into his own end. Defender gets a puck in the corner, breakout pass to the left boards, and Eklund turns and races up ice to be the first one into the offensive zone and chase down the chipped puck in the left corner. Wins the race, moves the puck to the right corner. Then he's over and supporting in the right corner, and as a cycle begins, he curls to the high slot. Moves to the right corner to collect a puck, sends it through to the left point, and goes to the crease. A saved shot spins back around to the left point, and Eklund moves to center point. Puck goes D to D to the right point, Eklund pivots, opens to the puck, glides backwards toward the left circle, then one-time slapper five hole. Goal. My goodness.
