The 17-year-old forward Leo Carlsson has no problem talking about his stutter.
- It's obvious that I do it, so why hide it?
It is as it is.
I have it, but I don't care for it that much either.
It's still a part of me, I can't do much about it.
Talking in front of the class was not fun, but I did it anyway, he says.
Carlsson tells us that, after all, it can also cause it when he plays.
- When I'm on the ice and want to get something out quickly and am out of breath.
Then it could be bad.
At the same time, I give a shit about it.
Just get the word out and you'll be fine.
But then something simple becomes difficult.
Leo Carlsson is one of the key players in Sweden's team at the Junior WC, which will be broadcast on SVT starting on December 26.
