Viggo Bjorck's Player Profile

Peter Baracchini - The Hockey Writers - July 19th: "For him to continue to stand out against older competition is truly impressive as he continues to elevate his game and consistency. He’s only 5-foot-9, but Björck’s high end IQ, skillset, slick puck control and playmaking makes him a force to be reckoned with."

Hannah Stuart - Bleacher Report - July 19th: "What his height doesn’t affect is his pure skill, which he has in spades. His hands are incredible, his ability to read the ice is top-notch, and the way he can find holes in the opponent’s defense and create plays to get through it is going to be incredibly valuable."

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - July 4th: "Björck might be the second most skilled forward in this class behind McKenna. After obliterating the U-18 Swedish league last year, he led the U-20 league by a solid margin this year."

Chris Peters - Flo Hockey - June 20th: "He has tremendous hands, an ability to read plays in transition and he can pick defenses apart in a variety of ways. He can score in a variety of ways and he's going to often be a favorite linemate with how much extra time he can create to make plays."

The Hockey News - June 29th: "Bjorck is the type of guy who plays bigger than his size. He’s an incredibly smart player who makes others better and puts up numbers (74 points in 42 junior games)."

Austin Board - FC Hockey - April 22nd: "Bjorck is an impressive offensive forward, who despite being undersized should not be taken lightly. He can it all offensively, serving as a facilitator or a finisher. He has a deceptively powerful shot and can get it off in traffic making him a dangerous player whenever his team crosses the opposing blue line."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - April 1st: " Bjorck can play with the puck on his string and make plays as a natural facilitator who has a ton of poise and vision, but he also plays in and out of give-and-gos, will go to the net and finish off plays and has great overall sense on and off the puck. He’s also a quick and fast skater who can play at different paces and challenge both in straight lines and on cuts and turnbacks."
