Eddie-Bo Franzen joins Detroit's Little Caesar’s 15U AAA team

Summary

Eddie-Bo Franzen, son of former NHL player Johan Franzen, is set to join Detroit’s Little Caesar’s 15U AAA team for the upcoming season. After a successful stint with Linkoping HC's U16 team, where he scored 14 goals and 5 assists in 15 games, the younger Franzen makes a swift transition to American hockey. At just 15 years old and standing 6 feet tall, he aims to make his mark as the team's first Swedish player. Adapting to the smaller ice surface and cultural differences will be key as he embarks on this new chapter in his hockey career. He will be living with former NHL goaltender Chris Osgood, which could help ease his transition.
