Albert Johansson

Albert Johansson is a bit behind Mortiz Seider when it comes to being ready for a jump to North America.  Johansson needs one more full year in the SHL and he might be ready to move directly to Detroit.  The left defenseman had an exceptional season in the SHL last year and should play significant minutes for Farjestad (SHL) this coming season.
