Profile Contributed By: HF Staff
History
2007-08: Hellgren recorded 14 points in 40 games with Frolunda Jr. in Sweden. His 14 points was good enough for him to rank fourth among team defensemen in scoring on the team. He tied for first amoung the club’s blueliners with a +23 rating.
Talent Analysis
His hockey sense and on-ice vision are good and passing game fairly well-developed. Has good offensive instincts. Skating is smooth for a big guy. Defensively, Hellgren does not play simple enough, and plays inconsistently. He needs to become stronger and develop his physical game also.
Future
Hellgren has many qualities that could make him a high-caliber defenseman in the future, including size.
