Lulea recruits from “Gnaget” – Aftonbladet

Lulea recruits from the Hockey Allsvenskan.

AIK’s Victor Ekarv is ready for the club.

– Incredibly fun to have this opportunity, says 20-year-old.

Victor Ekarv has 17 points in 33 games for AIK Hockey Allsvenskan. But now the 20-year-old ready for SHL.

The Center has signed a contract that extends over this season and next.

– Incredibly fun to have this opportunity. It is really exciting. There were many factors that played into but above all Luleå Hockey a good club to continue to develop in, say Ekarv in a press release.



“Rapp and creative game”

Ekarv played junior hockey in Almtuna before he went to AIK. 20-year-old connects to the team during the New Year’s Day.

– Victor is a bustard, games, creative forward. We were interested to get Victor to next season but got already the possibility of linking up with him and can thus

begin our journey, says Luleå’s sporting director Lars “Osten” Bergström.

AIK’s coach Peter Nordström:

– We have seen to what is best for both AIK and Victor. Lulea wanted to take him directly and we see an opportunity to bring in additional capital by letting him go. It is also a feather in the cap of AIK’s junior and youth activities to produce even a SHL player. We wish Victor all the best in his future career, he told the club’s website.

AIK did before New Year’s Eve clear the hill Nils Backstrom.
