Friday Fabian? A little more about Red Wings try-out Fabian Brunnstrom

Via RedWingsFeed, it?s not exactly what you?d expect on a Friday night in August, but the Sporting News?s Craig Custance had a conversation with Red Wings assistant GM Jim Nill about try-out Fabian Brunnstrom, who rebuffed several offers to play in the Swedish Eliteserien for the opportunity to either steal a job from one of the Wings? 14 forwards already under contract?or impress another potential employer?over the course of training camp and the exhibition season:

?I think he?s comfortable with our style of hockey, our players,? Red Wings assistant GM Jim Nill told Sporting News. ?These guys come over and they have a couple years to make it?it?s like the clock is ticking and all of a sudden you?re like ?Oh, my time is up.??

That time is closing in for Brunnstrom. He?s coming off a season in which he played in 72 AHL games with the Texas Stars and Toronto Marlies. He had 15 goals and 20 assists.
