– All I can think about is to go over and run off, he says to the GP.
After three seasons in the Toronto Maple Leafs and Chicago Blackhawks Organizations awaits new adventure for Spencer Abbott.
On Tuesday presented 27-year-old who Frölunda’s latest acquisition.
– I’m super excited! It feels like the right position for me to come over. Try something new, he says on the phone from Canada.
– I have never been to Sweden before, but heard so much good things about the country and the club. I do not think it will be a difficult adjustment. Also, my girlfriend and she love Europe!
Abbott is a högerfattad forward who in recent years has played in the AHL.

Are you open to stay longer than a year?
– Yes, I’m open to it. If all goes well and they want to keep me, why not?
The 27-year-old dream, however, like many others, for a career in the NHL.
He has been testing the world Perhaps the best league, but more than an appearance in the Toronto Maple Leafs have not happened.
– It was really fun! But at the same time I wish it had been more, he says.
– The dream is not over yet. I think this move may do me good, that I can become a better player. And thus might take me
How would you describe yourself as a player?
– I’m offensive. Like to create chances for my kedjekamrater, making them better.
Do you think you will fit into the Swedish hockey?
– Yes. I think the big rink will benefit me. I like surfaces and have the time to keep the puck. I’m not a guy who dumps …
Have you talked with any coach Roger Rönnberg how Frolunda want to use you?
– Not since I wrote , but we talked at before I took the decision last summer. I have played both rightwing and leftwing and likes both. I will play where the coach wants me to play.
