European Prospect Update: Vejdemo breaks the ice, and Nygren's homecoming

In a mixed week of league play in their home countries, and knockout competition in the Champions Hockey League, the prospects had their up and downs.

Lukas Vejdemo started it all with the first goal of his SHL career. Artturi Lehkonen is playing centre again, as Frölunda's regular #1 is in Dallas for camp. Martin Reway showed class on Friday but was held back on Sunday as his ice time plummeted, only to comeback with two assists against Zurich Lions in CHL. Magnus Nygren had one assist in his return to the SHL, and followed that up with a slap shot goal in the next game.
