History

2008-09: His play earned him a call-up to Brynas of the SEL, where he scored three goals and one assist in 16 games.

Talent Analysis

Silfverberg is a strong skating two-way forward with good hockey sense. He is a very smart and mature player and is solid both offensively and defensively. Silfverberg has good technical skills and plays with plenty of intensity. His shot is quick, but could be more accurate and he does not really play very physical. Opinions about Silfverberg's career differ. Some see a potential star player in him, while other see his potential limited to that of a role player. Could be a wild card in the NHL draft and selected much earlier than projected.
