An abbreviated tracker this week as world junior camps come to a close and the COVID-19 pandemic impacts Vancouver’s prospects elsewhere:A wise man once mused that great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending. That being said, the portrait Hoglander painted in his final stretch of games in Sweden was nothing short of a masterpiece. The diminutive dynamo ended his Swedish Hockey League loan with some strokes of genius this past week, notching two multi-point games — including a spectacular goal — as the Vancouver Canucks prospect now gears up for training camp with the big club. The 2019 second-rounder started the week by scoring a goal and adding an assist in a 5-0 win at Lulea on Tuesday.
I have trained a bit on it and fun to try on a match,” Hoglander said in a second intermission interview.
Hoglander had one shot on goal and 25 penalty minutes in 13:04 of ice time in the win for his former first-place team.
Otherwise it is up to them if they think it is best that I come back to Rogle.
He’ll have to prove to head coach Travis Green that his defensive play is up to the task, something that the Canucks’ bench boss has required out of his roster hopefuls.
