Marco Kasper could have chosen an easier path to make a bigger impression in his draft year. He could have gone to one of the Junior leagues in North America, or a smaller European league. Kasper, however, chose the SHL, one of the tougher leagues for a draft-eligible player to break into. He also chose one of the top teams in said league, Rögle, a team that has developed Nils Höglander and Moritz Seider in recent years. Kasper is fully focused on developing into a NHL player and has taken a longer road to get there by learning the trade, both on and off the ice, before taking the next step in his career.
