I think I take him a couple tiers lower than Azavier Villeneuve, uh, and I think part of it is like
You know, scouts don't get to see as much from the Swedish leagues.
And I think Elfson didn't prove himself against the kind of competition that Azavier Villanov did, but he's another one who could end up like a you know, like a lower-end version of Elaine Hudson.
Uh it's just he he has a lot of translate translatability issues, uh, a lack of higher-end foot speed being the number one.
So I think in the sense of like uh offensive creation, yeah, definitely like Lane.
Hudson, but doesn't have the same skating facility that someone like Hudson does.
Uh so he's mobile, but he doesn't have high-end elite speed.
Um, and then there's uh some limitations in his game defensively, like on puck retrievals.
Uh, and so he reminds me of a guy who went undrafted a couple years ago and was drafted this year by Pittsburgh and Tomash Galvis.
Um, this is a this this is a conversation that was had by Victor and Brad Allen on that FHL episode.
So you can check it out in more detail.
But uh he's certainly special offensively, but he needs to he needs to develop like a base level of defense.
defense.
I I think at his current level he won't make the NHL.
Axel Elofson, yeah.
I think Galvez, like I I've I love a Galvest.
I've loved Galvest for years.
I've been watching Galvest for a long time.
Um I think that
He'll have a spot in Pittsburgh eventually.
