Nybro is Quist's childhood club team, and he's had contact with Eriksson before.Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679371921149278845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6677867857097423502.post-4307069911335163822008-05-31T20:16:00.000-06:002008-05-31T20:16:00.000-06:00Doritogrande: I've spoken with Quist about CHL/Sw...Doritogrande: I've spoken with Quist about CHL/Sweden and he seems to feel that playing in a mens league there, even though it's 2 levels below the SEL, is better for him than the CHL.<BR/><BR/>The Oilers disagree completely because they think he'll be a 13th forward for Nybro and play sparringly when he's not a healthy scratch.<BR/><BR/>He does have an escape clause though to play in North America I'm told.Guy Flaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03178739486819659419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6677867857097423502.post-48074488643924700882008-05-31T17:04:00.000-06:002008-05-31T17:04:00.000-06:00I'm also a bit concerned about Quist, but I believ...I'm also a bit concerned about Quist, but I believe there is a loop-hole in his contract with the Swedish team that he can opt out if he's drafted by a CHL team. I have also been lead to believe that Quist would much prefer to play in North America, because of the increased physicality.<BR/><BR/>I think he'd fit right in playing in the Dub, but I'd love to see him terrorize the Q with his hitting. The scorer-friendly league wouldn't know what hit them.doritograndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14497613230666426389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6677867857097423502.post-4146089281884394382008-05-31T13:25:00.000-06:002008-05-31T13:25:00.000-06:00Quist isn't here because he's writing exams in sch...Quist isn't here because he's writing exams in school all next week. He should be here in the fall but he has signed with the Nybro Vikings and the Oilers aren't thrilled about that - they'd much prefer to see him in the CHL getting big minutes as a 19 year old than as a spare part in the Swedish version of the ECHL.Guy Flaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03178739486819659419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6677867857097423502.post-58902104498684352682008-05-31T03:20:00.000-06:002008-05-31T03:20:00.000-06:00Any word on why William Quist isn't among the play...Any word on why William Quist isn't among the players in ShPk?
