Filip Ekberg's Player Profile

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - June 10th: "He makes highly difficult and creative plays with the puck often. He's a great playmaker with a good shot who projects to run a pro power play. He's shifty, but not fast, and given he's small and not overly physical, his game could struggle to transition to pro hockey."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 2nd: "Ekberg is a comfortable one-touch shooter, he's got deft hands and he's got some craft and creativity both on the puck and as a passer. He's a smart offensive player who anticipates and reads the play well, finding space in soft pockets of ice to get open into."

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - May 27th: "My biggest complaint about Ekberg’s season was how underutilized he was by Ottawa 67’s coach Dave Cameron ... I think he’s one of the more pure-skilled forwards in this draft class, and that he just needed the right opportunity to prove that."

Jason Bukala - Sportsnet - March 26th: "Passed over in last year’s draft. Two-way forward who's deployed in all situations. (58GP-27G-53A)."
