Cap Hit: $850,000Powered by
NHL Rights: Florida Panthers / Signed
Drafted: 2019 round 1 #22 overall by Los Angeles Kings
Agency: Premium

Björnfot is a very capable two-way defenseman with few weaknesses in his game. A strong skater who reads the game well and contributes both offensively and defensively. Also a good leader and he competes hard on every shift. Can be used on the powerplay, but stands out more in his own end with this solid play. (EP 2019)

Björnfot is in superb physical shape and he is both strong and got good conditioning
— Hockeyprospect.com 2019

He has a strong and hard first pass to start the transition game and he also has the ability to transport the puck zone-to-zone himself
— Future Considerations 2019

He is a solid stickhandler and good passer, as likely to make the simple, safe play as he is to attempt something more challenging
— McKeen's Hockey 2019

Complete defender.. competent in all situations.. nice lateral mobility with the puck allows him to find space to make plays under pressure
— Draftin Europe 2018
