Highlights
1-time Champions Hockey League Champion 1
1-time SHL Champion 1

Although quite similar to his twin-brother Pathrik, Ponthus usually is the one that sets up the plays. Fine offensive awareness and playmaking ability. Nice hands and protects the puck well, while cycling away with his brother.

Twin-brother: Pathrik Vesterholm
