Observations
December 2018 – Rondbjerg has had a disappointing start to the 2018-2019 season where he has only scored a single goal and an assist in 23 games for Vaxjo of the SHL. Last season he finished with 11 points in 35 games and is significantly far from that pace. The season is still young and he will be looked at to as the cornerstone of the Danish offense at the World Junior Championship. If he’s able to find the same success he displayed in last year’s tournament (seven points in six games) then you can expect he will carry that confidence back to the SHL for the latter part of the season. When he is at his best Rondbjerg anticipates pucks, plays at a high pace and wins the majority of puck battles. The next month will be important to get his scoring ability back on track. Mason Black
March 2018 – Jonas Rondbjerg completed his rookie season with Vaxjo in the SHL and posted a respectable 11 points in 35 games played while averaging 8:34 minutes of ice time per game. He has yet to play a game in the playoffs for the Vaxjo Lakers but has posted two assists in as many games with their J20 team in the SuperElit. Rondbjerg was relied on heavily for a somewhat outmatched Danish team during the World Junior Championship and led the team in scoring where he was able to find the back of the net twice and added five assists for seven points in only six games. Next year will be a pivotal year for Rondbjerg’s progress as he’ll be trusted with more opportunity and given a more offensive role with the likely departure of Elias Pettersson. Overall, Rondbjerg has a high compete level and wins board battles despite his age at the professional level and the fact he hasn’t filled out his frame yet. Mason Black
