Örebro's Leo Carlsson is one of the greatest talents in Swedish ice hockey.

In rankings ahead of this summer's NHL draft, he is often among the top five.

Before that, several NHL clubs have contacted the 17-year-old.

- I try not to think about it so much.

It's there, that's for sure.

Right now I'm focusing on the present, says Carlsson.

The forward believes that the smaller rink, which you have in North America, will fit him like a glove on the day it's time to go over.

- Really good, I think.

There you have to think fast and have quick hands and I'm good at that.

I think it will be great, he says.

The increased pressure that, for example, the draft means must not change his attitude to the sport.

- We have said it a lot - me, the father and the agent.

That I should never stop playing hockey.

That's what I'm good at and that's what I'm going to do.

If I become too stationary and just go around, then I don't think it will be good.

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.
