Caps seventh-round pick and potential second-generation NHLer Christian Djoos has done it all for Brynas IF in the Swedish Elitserien. He has taken on many roles– from first-pair alongside NHLer Cody Franson, to healthy scratch, to limited seventh D-man duties. He’s played in 31 games this year, averaging 13:49 of TOI after just one outing with only 04:53 TOI last year. But he’s never scored a point in the Elitserien.

Until now.

Christian’s assist comes at the 1:49 mark.

Djoos’ recorded his first point in the big league on Wednesday. Djoos, together with Stephen Whyno’s high-school classmate Ryan Gunderson, assisted on a goal by Jonas Nordquist. The goal, scored early in the third period, brought Brynas back by one in a game against Rogle BK. However, Rogle won 5-3.
