Stars in Sweden

Saw some real talent in the last few days. Aside from the solid Frölunda players, Markus Näslund, came to town with his Modo team. They also had Dan Hinote on the ice with some other exceptional Swedish talent. Two home grown Modo products; Per Svartvardet and Mattias Weinhandl, both promising players, played well. But the star of the night was Henrik "Henke" Lundquist who shut out one of the best scorers in any league anywhere; Näslund. Frölunda won 3 - 0. Onwards to the championship!
