In four games with the Iowa Wild, Liam Ohgren has scored four goals. He scored a goal in his second game of the year and recently scored three in a game.
Ohgren, 20, scored zero points, eight shots and was a minus-2 in seven NHL games this year. He scored three goals in his fourth AHL game of the year on November 9.
It’s important that the former 2022 first-round pick gets to play games and the AHL offers Ohgren the opportunity to play top-six minutes and special teams.
So far he’s getting that opportunity and he’s producing.
