The Ohlund Zone

Join the Club!

Last updated June 21st, 1998 Hello, and welcome to the Ohlund Zone, the first webpage featuring the Canucks outstanding rookie, Mattias Ohlund. Ohlund has made an impression with the Canucks since his very first game in Nagano, Japan, and has quickly risen up to become the Canucks #1 defensemen. With great hockey sense, a low hard shot, and a bone-crunching body check, Ohlund will surely be going places.

First off, forgive the latness of this update. There has been a lot of interest showing in this page, and I will try to keep it more up todate.

Mattias Ohlund is a candidate for the Calder Trophy, awarded to the leagues top rookie. His competition is Boston sniper Sergei Samsanov, and suprising New Jersey Devils forward Patrick Elias. Mike Johnson of the Toronto Maple Leafs, who tied for first in rookie scoring this season, was suprisingly not selected as a finalist.

Ohlund finished up the Canucks season strong, with 7 goals, 23 assists, and a strong +3 +/- rating on a team knowing for it's weary defense. Brian McCabe will provide help on the defensive side, but Ohlund will still be relied upon for the majority of the defensive responsibility. The likelihood of Jyrki Lumme signing on with another team will mean Ohlunds responsibilities will become even greater.
