Linus Eriksson's Player Profile

Chris Peters - Flo Hockey - June 3rd: "I don’t know that the offense is quite at the level for him to be more than a bottom-six role player, but he has some good detail to his game that should allow him to be an effective down-the-lineup player who might be able to provide some secondary scoring."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 3: "Eriksson is an intelligent, average-sized center whose game is all about reads, timing, two-way instincts, and the way he operates and moves around the ice. He's also a really strong natural athlete. He’s a problem-solver who plays a well-rounded game."

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - May 28th: "He is a creative player with a pass-first mentality who sees seams well and can generate offense from the perimeter. Eriksson's work ethic is good enough. I wouldn't call him the type who is going to run over opponents, but he gets to the inside and gives an honest effort every night."

Sebastian High - Dobber Prospects - Apr. 20th: " His tools aren’t particularly difference-making factors, but his level of composure, reading of the game, and 200-foot off-puck habits have enabled him to play really reliable minutes in HockeyAllsvenskan this season and make him quite a projectable bottom-six NHLer."

Central Scouting - Apr. 16th: "He is smart with the puck and effectively setting up plays. Finesse-type of consistent player with a lot of energy. He makes things happen with his hard checking game. Not flashy but reliable and smart on every shift."

Tony Ferrari - The Hockey News - Apr. 15th: "Eriksson is an unselfish player in every respect, looking to find his teammates whenever he can. Eriksson is a tactical player who has looked his best since he has been elevated to the men’s team."
