Oscar Möller had not played for Tre Kronor since the 2018 Olympics, but when Hallam made his first squad, he was there again.

- It will be exciting to show what you are going for, Möller told SVT after the selection.

As one match has now been played, it is precisely the 33-year-old's name that Hallam mentions first when he is asked to tell who impressed extra in the premiere.

- There were actually several.

But it is impressive to see someone like Oscar Möller, who makes such incredibly good decisions on the ice.

Even though he has been around for a long time, it is impressive to see how he can find his way in a system so quickly, says Hallam, who also mentions Luleå forward Isac Brännström and goalkeeper Marcus Högberg.

He hasn't played in a long time.

Do you think he showed he's up to this level?

- I think he shows it week in and week out in the league as well.

But I think I, like many others, have been blind to his offensive qualities as a goalscorer.

Yesterday, I think he showed at a very high level that he is very multifaceted in his game, says the national team captain.
