This is probably the toughest grade article to write this year, not due to Aatos Koivu’s performance in itself, but because TPS Turku has been in shambles, on and off the ice. The Liiga club and Rasmus Bergqvist’s Skellefteå, saw similar experiences for their Montreal Canadiens prospects, but are still poles apart. One team is arguably Scandinavia’s, and Europe’s, top team, the other is at the other end of the spectrum. Coach Toni Söderholm tried to implement a completely new system. Aatos’s uncle, Mikko Koivu, was added to the coaching team and on top of it all the club got draw into a labour law situation with regard to Pride jerseys that had a fallout all the way up to the boardroom. It wasn’t the easiest season for Aatos who looked to jump out of the gate and showcase the talent that was visible during last year’s development camp and the Summer Showcase.

Rasmus Bergqvist is a Swedish champion. Skelelfteå completed the double, winning the league and then cruising through the playoffs to grab the Le Mat Trophy with both hands, and it is difficult to see another team taking it away from them when looking at the upcoming season. The good thing is that Bergqvist played 40 games in SHL, with an average time on ice of 11:02. He was used as a sixth and seventh defenceman throughout the season and was sat for some games. In order for him to get more time and exposure he was loaned out to Östersund in HockeyAllsvenskan for four games. Unfortunately for Bergqvist (and the other SHL teams) Skellefteå had all their players available in the playoffs and Bergqvist didn’t get a chance to play a shift.
