Frondell on who he models his game after
"[I model my game after Aleksander] Barkov in Florida. Captain, good size, strong. Good hockey sense. A smart player that likes to compete, I would say, Barkov. I play like him."
Frondell on teammate and 2nd ranked international skater Victor Eklund
He's the player with the highest energy that I ever have played with. Outside of the rinks, really funny guy too. Always happy, always full of energy. And let's say it's a day where I feel a little more tired or something. He's there, he has a laugh, and then I'm back to like glad again.
