I recently met Baptiste Amar, French national team defenseman, two-time French league MVP who averaged almost 26 minutes a game at the World Championships last May, fourth most in the tournament.

This season, he’s taken his A game to Sweden and Rögle where’s already in the league top-10 in plus/minus, and averages over 20 minutes a game.

We talked about how he got to Sweden, what it’s been like, and whether he gets help from the two other French guys in the league: Timrå’s Laurent Meunier, and Skellefteå's Pierre-Edouard Bellemare. Enjoy.
