Friberg is a strong and speedy winger with an excellent work rate and a great attitude. A true team player who skates and forechecks hard. Two-way player who does not mind playing physical and is strong along the boards. Decent productivity and creativity, making him more than just a role player. (Elite Prospects, 2011)
