Henrik Björklund was led out groggy after the slap against Leksand.

The Färjestad forward was out for a long time last season due to a concussion.

– He is fine, but we will be careful with him, says Mattias Hell, responsible for the medical team.

There were nasty pictures when Henrik Björklund was lowered into the ice during Saturday’s game.

Many supporters as well as teammates and opponents became worried about the 34-year-old.

Leksand defender Anton Lindholm has been suspended for five games for the main tackle.

“A smooth transition”

Färjestad now announces that Henrik Björklund has undergone investigations.

– On the doctor’s advice and considering the type of bang, we choose in consultation with Henrik Björklund himself to observe extra caution in the next few days. He will therefore not travel with the team when they go to Thursday’s match against Timrå, says Mattias Hell.

“Björka” has been able to be in the arena to train on her own in the gym.

– He feels good. Linked to history, we choose a soft return, says Mattias Hell.

Last season, Henrik Björklund was out from mid-October to early March due to a concussion.

Several positive messages

Patrik “Peppe” Lundh, who missed the Leksand match, is training fully again.

Färjestad also hopes that the long-term injured Liam Öhgren will be able to be back on the ice this week.

Färjestad tops the table after taking five three-pointers in the six games.

After the Timrå match, Örebro awaits away on Saturday evening, both teams have 15 points at the top of the table.
