Father: Reine Rydberg

Crus Rydberg is a very smart and skilled playmaker. Impressive hockey sense and passing ability. Stickhandles well through heavy traffic and makes room for himself and his teammates. Not a natural goal scorer, but has a good release. Two-way ability is good. Should work on his consistency, acceleration and skating, a bit, although it is not a major concern. (EP, 2013)
