Doktor Kosmos Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 A girl on a different messege board where I post regularly asked me this question: BTW doc do you remember that Swedish player who had a short stint with the Habs more than a decade ago? He was good but i can't remember his name, i think he wasn't able to cope with the tougher north American style of play even tough he was very talented. Can anyone help me out?I suggested Patrik Kjellberg, Patrik Carnbäck, Kjell Dahlin and Thomas Rundqvist, but she says neither one was the one she was thinking of. I know the question is as far from being specific as it can be, personally I could use a more detailed guess about which year it is... but never the less. She's also offered me such clues as: Neither, he played less than a season & had a very promising start, then he left the NHL. I think his name ended with "..in" or "..en". and Dammit! I can't find him yet but if you can suggest a site which offers rosters, all seasons, then i'll target him. I'm pretty sure he played late eighties or early nineties.It annoys me because i have a good memory but this guy just eludes me right now. He played less than a season, i was always intigued as to why he left the Habs & the NHL, he was atalented offensive (winger?) player. Thanks in advance guys!ADD: I figured this would be the best place to ask. :/) [Edited on 2005/3/17 by Doktor Kosmos] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sakiqc Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 The only one fitting your description is Kjell Dahlin. I guess she forgot it was him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doktor Kosmos Posted March 18, 2005 Author Share Posted March 18, 2005 I'm starting to think so too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycing Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 My guess is with him as well, he holds the habs record for most points by a rookie in one season... so i mean, thats a good start right? ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leafs Suck Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I believe Dahlin holds the habs record for goals by a rookie... I believe Naslund has the record for points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doktor Kosmos Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 No, I think they share the rookie point record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doktor Kosmos Posted April 16, 2005 Author Share Posted April 16, 2005 Turns out Kjell Dahlin was the player she was thinking of all along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
