Blues scout: Eller fik mit hjerte til at pumpe
Danske Lars Eller var ikke kommet på en nem opgave, da han skulle overbevise St Louis Blues's europæiske scout Ville Siren om sine kvaliteter sidste sæson inden draften.. Således fortæller Siren til NHL.com
"I saw Eller in a few games early last season and he got my heart pumping,"
"I wanted to not like him. I wanted to find some flaws. But I couldn’t. I went back later in the season and followed him for almost a month. Same thing. He played hard and with great skills with the puck. He brought me out of my seat every time I’d watch him."
Lars Eller har gennemgået en mindre operation i hånden, som holder ham ude et stykke tid endnu. Men i St Louis har man stadig store forventninger til deres danske førstevalg.
