Johan Ekberg Facts

Agency: Premium

He uses his size to dominate in front of the opposing net and is quick to jump into board battles to win the puck back. Ekberg not only outmuscles his opponents, but he also works in a smart and efficient way. He also generates a lot of power into his release, really putting goaltenders to the test. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
