This report is from Sweden's 4-3 shootout win over Russia on December 31st, 2012.
Forsberg is Central Scouting's number 1 ranked European prospect. He's a great puck-moving forward who has loads of flair. He also has the confidence to make solid plays while carrying the puck through the neutral-zone. He played 43 games in the Swedish second division, scoring 8 goals, and adding 9 assists.
Collberg is the third-ranked European skater. He is more of an offensive-specialist, who plays his best in the offensive-zone. He played 41 games in the Swedish Elite League this season, but has yet to produce offensively.
Both players produced below-average grades in the game scouted. Even-strength ice-time was limited due to the large amount of penalties called in the game.
