In the fall of 2021, Leksandsfostrade Olle Strandell started the season with games in the hockey league for Borlänge.
Seven games into the season, he was offered to come to Mora – and took the chance.
He became a regular back under Johan Hedberg’s management, but it is this season that the big steps have been taken.
Already in the pre-season, Hedberg announced clearly.
– When Axel Bergkvist went to Färjestad, Olle Strandell will get the chance at that position in the power play.
The 23-year-old got the chance, and took it.
Two points last season, 28 points this season. Strandell has been one of the Hockeyallsvenskan’s best defenders.
Now he also gets an SHL chance.
Several Mora players go to the SHL
According to information to Expressen, Strandell is ready for HV71. He has been ready for some time.
HV’s sports manager Kent Norberg does not want to confirm or deny the information.
– No, I have no comments, he says shortly.
For Mora’s part, the player loss thus continues. At least four players have already signed for SHL clubs in the form of Isac Heens to Frölunda, Johannes Johannesen to Rögle, Anton Heikkinen to Skellefteå and Axel Sundberg to Örebro, according to Expressen’s information.
Johan Hedberg, who will be the club’s new head coach, also goes to Örebro.
In addition, it is said that Albin Grewe is ready for Djurgården according to Sportbladet, and Kalle Miketinac is ready for games in Finland according to Expressen.
