Observations

August 2024 – Berglund is known for his strong physical presence and solid defensive play. Standing at 6’3, he uses his size to win board battles. His positioning and hockey IQ make him a reliable asset in the defensive zone. Berglund possesses a powerful shot and the ability to make smart outlet passes, suggesting he could potentially develop into a reliable two-way forward in the NHL. James Iacovone

June 2024 – Berglund was selected in the second round, 51st overall, by the Philadelphia Flyers in the 2024 NHL Draft. Hadi Kalakeche

June 2024 – He is a big, strong two-way center who outmatched his peers in the J20 league due to his physical prowess but still needs to develop to compete effectively in the SHL, primarily due to his skating abilities. Internationally, he has shown some offensive potential, though it lacks consistency. With improvements in his skating, he has the potential to be a solid bottom-6 contributor in the NHL. Ideally, he could serve as a third-line center who adds some offensive output, but there’s also a strong possibility he could be effective as a defensively reliable fourth-liner.
