DeltaSwede Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Really good game by Lek. He's really shifty and pushes the paces offensively. He was quite the playmaker tonight. Really like his aggressive pursuit of the puck and always looking to create something. Very impressed with him so far this tournament 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karma-Kazi44 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 I feel he was the most dangerous player for Sweden in the game. Yea there was a hatrick but Lek was ripping pucks and dishing beautiful feeds all game. Easily could have had a 4 point game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, tomorrow is a different animal and he's going to have much less time and space. Still, great tourney for him so far 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all the hand wringing over his play in last years tournament, he was good enough, defensively, to be on the checking line. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just goes to show too that, just because a prospect doesn't start with certain skills, it doesn't mean he can't develop them. A lot of people seem to want to panic at a lack of skills, but that's why they're a prospect to begin with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammertime Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 (edited) They (TSN) just said he had 12 shot attempts against Germany alone. On their website they have only credited him with 5 shots 2g and one cross bar we have seen. Has he really only hit the net 2 other times? When the puck comes off his stick it really pops and managing 12 shot attempts against that singy team credit Germany defended well. It seems like he's getting chances but 5 shots only that can't be right? 2 goals a crossbar and 2 saves?

We may also need to make arena upgrades. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he was missing the net a bunch early on in the game. Edited December 29, 2023 by TheWhiskeyPickle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
