Axel Jonsson-Fjallby Shines in World Juniors, But Takes Off Silver Medal
Caps prospect Axel Jonsson-Fjallby helped represent Sweden in the 2018 World Junior Championships who ended up winning the silver medal after losing 3-1 to Canada in the gold medal game. However, after he received his silver medal, it would appear as if he takes it off. He gets his medal at the 20 second mark in this video.

The Capitals 5th round pick in 2016 had two highlight reel shorthanded goals and two assists in seven games played. He was also a +4, took 20 shots and averaged more than 10 minutes of ice time a game. Overall, it was a good tournament for the Capitals prospect.
