Bjoernsson Prepares for Two Drafts Following Second Trade of Season

[jblock3 44]

After starting his VHLM career by signing as an undrafted free agent with the Minnesota Storm and then being traded part way through the season to the Philadelphia Reapers, Icelandic rookie goaltender Kolur Bjoernsson was traded once again today just before the deadline. After starting 23 games for the Reapers, Bjoernsson will now serve as Luke Derion's backup on the Las Vegas Aces. While he enjoyed the opportunity to start and play a lot of hockey, he is still excited about now once again being on a team that is looking to make a run for the championship. 

 

In addition to all of this going on, Kolur Bjoernsson can't help but focus his mind on the upcoming VHL and VHLM entry drafts. Because he was never drafted into the VHLM, he will be available this offseason after serving on three different rosters this season. Bjoernsson is hoping for some stability following the draft so that he can start to really develop his career. In addition to the VHLM draft, his VHLM rookie status makes him eligible for the VHL entry draft as well. Given the somewhat strange season he has had and the not so good stats he has posted, he is unsure where he might sit on VHL draft boards. Nonetheless, he is hoping he has shown enough potential that someone will take a shot at him. Bjoernsson hopes to make something of his time left in Las Vegas and earn a solid spot on a VHLM roster, to then develop into an elite VHL goalie.

He will find his spot. JBlock, I have no doubt you will be fought over by many GMs. You have amazing value as a goalie
