One NHL scout ended our conversation about Viggo Bjorck by mentioning the catch.

"...But he's only 5-foot-8, maybe 5-foot-9 in a good pair of shoes," they said.

Scouts and prospect experts are eager to talk about all of the positives in the NHL draft prospect's game, but it often ends with a comment about his size, warranted or not. It's a reality for Bjorck, and he knows it. That's why the Swedish center uses his size to his advantage, making him one of the top pivots in the 2026 draft class.
