I actually think that it's quite an impressive CV. When you consider that point scoring would not be his main focus, he has chipped in with decent numbers pretty much everywhere he's been.
A big body, agitator, and if he can chip in with 30 points on the 3rd line then could be a star.
I wouldn't read too much into Swedish third division. Last year players were just accepting jobs wherever they could, and there could be a lot of other factors there.
He has of course played a lot for Cincinnati as well, a place where Skalde spent a few years coaching.
