Marks Nygren Drafted By San Diego

[Devise 4,475]

Season 68 has officially begun, we are roughly 5 games into the VHLM season and recently announced VHL prospect and VHLM player Markus Nygren has a home. Markus, the older brother of Malmo Nighthawks forward Lukas Nygren was drafted in the 2nd round by the San Diego Marlins. I almost just called them the San Diego Gulls for some reason.

 

Anyway, we caught up with Markus to discuss his early thoughts on being in VHLM and San Diego.

I was happy to get selected still so early despite only just announcing. I know there are a lot of prospects with a lot of future around me and below me so it's just an honor to be selected at all. I came with a good attitude and a fresh perspective ready to help out my team. It hasn't completely manifested yet, but it's still early in the season and we have lots of ice left to skate if you catch my drift. 

 

San Diego is one of the middling teams in the VHLM with just enough mix of firepower and roster that if their bigger names and top players can continue to earn throughout the season the team very much could be a playoff threat. We'll see as the Season 68 unfolds in the VHLM.
