Profile Contributed By: HF Staff
History
2006-07: Played extremely well with Frolunda in the SEL last season. He actually ended up being better statistically for the Indians over veteran netminder Tommy Salo. Posted a 2.58 goals-against-average and a .897 save percentage in 35 games played. Played for Team Sweden at the WJC.
2007-08: Played his third season with the Frolunda Indians in the SEL. He shined when he joined the under-20 team, but struggled for the big club in the Elitserien. The Indians had a bad year, which prompted a coaching change and left Gistedt on the outside looking in. Playing as a back-up, the netminder’s numbers ballooned a bit, as he posted a 3.84 goals-against-average and a .857 save percentage in 11 games. At the conclusion of the season, Gistedt signed on with the Coyotes.
Talent Analysis
An agile goaltender that stands outs with his strong stickhandling skills. Gistedt is very good with the stick hand can deliver quick and accurate passes. Furthermore, Gistedt is a mobile butterfly-goalie with a quick glove and good lateral movement.
Future
One would think that the Coyotes would not bring Gistedt over to play in the double-A ranks when he was a playing in the SEL. He should end up in San Antonio to start the season. While there is no rush for Phoenix for a starter in the NHL, he will be given every chance and opportunity to adjust and develop his game in North America.
