Talent Analysis
An excellent skater. Cehlin accelerates really well and has good top speed. He is an offensive minded player with good technical skills and creativity. Passes the puck well and is a good scorer too. Could use some fine-tuning in his defensive game. Size is a drawback, although he has grown a bit since the end of last season.
Future
Cehlin will remain with Djurgarden for the upcoming season.
