Red Wings forward Jonatan Berggren was nearly killed in Sweden earlier this season.
Rookies' Near Death Experience
In his debut year, Jonatan Berggren turned heads with a promising performance. With 28 points across 67 games in a highly protected role, he demonstrated strong growth in his abilities.
However, a horrifying incident almost put a stop to both his NHL career and his life.
Listening to music and unaware of the oncoming train due to his headphones, Berggren was forced to make a death-evading dive. Witnesses recount the event as deeply unsettling.
Thankfully, Berggren escaped unharmed and is now gearing up for the 2023-24 NHL season.
In the upcoming season, Berggren aims to secure a more prominent role with the Red Wings. With a history of shining in every league except the NHL, Berggren is a proven force on the ice. Drafted as the 33rd overall pick in 2018, it's anticipated he'll be one of the Red Wings' top-9 players in the next season.
