They remind more about raptors than ducks – Aftonbladet

NEW YORK. blue and yellow stars Jakob Silfverberg and Hampus Lindholm reminiscent of prey rather than ducks.

It is one of the reasons that Anaheim can actually knock mighty Chicago.

One should not draw too far-reaching conclusions from a game and it is something we should have learned from the past five years the Stanley Cup playoffs is that it is never going to figure out teams like the Chicago Blackhawks.

But Anaheim ducks really confident when on Sunday opened the Western Conference finals against ex-champions from Lake

Michigan lake’s southwest shore with a 4-1 victory at home in Honda Center.

Have eagle’s speed

They neutralized the scarred opponents’ best forwards, stabbed themselves resolutely when they got the chance – and the bag was Frölunda-well-known Dane Frederik Andersen as difficult to penetrate as the bronze in the Little Mermaid at home in Copenhagen.

And so, the two Swedes who stepped forward and did what needed to be done when superstars Corey Perry and Ryan Getzlaf got

nerstängda.

Jakob Silfverberg – guest kingdoms with NHL career breakthrough during the current playoffs, leading the Swedish points league in superior style – and Scanian hill Hampus Lindholm was both respective

objectives respectively assists and excelled across the track, in all situations.

But as reminiscent “Jacke” and Hampus also more about raptors than ducks.

They have the eagle’s speed, Hökens eye falcon’s ability to cut its prey in flight.

At the collective property – there are enough people further back in the ranks who can take over the role as the match winner when the big boys suffocated in the lack of space – is the past half-decade has been one of the Chicago Blackhawks main strengths.

Do not remove Chicago

Now, however, it seems like ankflocken from Disneyland is equally well equipped in this respect – if not even more.

Again

Never count out the Chicago Blackhawks. They know how to come back and flashes even if they end up in 1-3 bases in the playoff series.

But the two birds of prey from Gävle and Skälderviken helps that they can make it more difficult than for many years.
