It isn’t only about impressing the coaches. Sure, part of the goal for William Stromgren at the annual Young Stars Classic in Penticton, B.C. is to ...
So what exactly should Flames fans be expecting from Stromgren? On the day he was drafted, Flames director of amateur scouting Tod Button described him as a good skater with dynamic offensive upside, but stressed that he still had a lot of developing to do.Stromgren, a native of Ornskoldsvik, didn’t put up massive numbers while playing in Sweden.
How will that translate to the North American game? Stromgren will almost certainly be playing his hockey with the Wranglers this season in the AHL, but he got a head start on his preparations for the season when he arrived in Calgary mid-summer to skate with a big group of pros, including Dillon Dube.“It’s all for a reason, you’ve gotta show up and do your best and show an example for the rest of the team,” Stromgren said.
“All the coaching staff wants to see everyone’s best and they want to see that everybody’s giving 100%.”The 6-foot-8 Czech winger picked up the overtime winner in Saturday night’s 4-3 win over the Edmonton Oilers’ young guns after also drawing the penalty that gave the Flames the power-play during which he scored.
Ilya Nikolaev, selected in the third round of the 2019 NHL Draft by the Flames, also notched a pair of goals for the Flames, while Matthew Coronato ripped a pretty shot into the back of the Oilers net from the top of the circle in the third period to pick up his first goal of the tournament. The Flames had a practice day Sunday before returning to game action against the Winnipeg Jets on Monday morning . The game can be streamed live on the team’s website.Meta has blocked news articles from appearing in Canada through its social media platforms Facebook and Instagram, so skip the gatekeeper and come straight to the source.
