The Walkeden Review - Swedish Vestberg Joins The Steelers


Paul Thompson makes Swedish Left Winger Fredrik Vestberg his next signing

The 32-Year-Old left winger joins the Steelers after spending the last 13 years in the Allsvenskan where he spent 8 of them years in his hometown club of Aimtuna. Despite being a left winger Vestberg has spent the last 3 years playing centre so it will be interesting to see what Thompson will use him as.

In 509 games in the Allsvenskan Vestberg has record 280 points (108+172) adding a further 22 points in 40 post-season games (10+12) even then he's only sat 200 PIM including post-season so impressive numbers put up for the experienced winger. Fredrik will probably be expected to play plenty of Ice time and I think we'll certainly see him on one of the powerplay units. Fredrik has also represented Sweden at U16 through to the U19 level so it'll certainly good to see him in Sheffield for the new season as he takes up one of our two EU slots.

One final thing to say and that is welcome to Sheffield Fredrik.
