    The Four Nations Face-Off rosters are set to be released on Wednesday, and according to a report from a Swedish news outlet, San Jose Sharks forward William Eklund was chosen to play for Team Sweden.

    The report suggests that the 22-year-old winger has made the February tournament roster. Team Sweden's roster will be officially announced at 11 a.m. PT and broadcast on ESPN on Wednesday. The rosters of Team Finland will also be released then. The rosters of the U.S. and Canada will be released at 3:30 p.m. and broadcast on TNT.

    When asked if he was aware of making the roster, Eklund told SJHN he had no comment but was thrilled to be considered based on his play this season. 

    "I think my game is way better than last year," Eklund told Sheng Peng. "I've grown my game and I play a more 200-foot game and better in all three zones. Even being in that conversation is a good thing."

    Eklund has 22 points (4 goals, 18 assists) in 26 games this season and recently saw a four-game point streak end against the Seattle Kraken on Saturday. 

    Fabian Zetterlund is also in contention to make Sweden's Four Nations roster, but no reports have been released about his roster status.
