John Nyberg is ready for his fourth SHL club. Backen changes Linköping to HV71.
– In John we get a back who gives us security in the defensive, says sporting director Kent Norberg in a press release.
After 150 SHL games for Frölunda, 61 with Brynäs and 136 with Linköping, John Nyberg is now ready for games with HV71.
The 27-year-old has signed for three years in the qualifying team.
– In John, we get a back who gives us security in the defensive, but also with an offensive upside and a good shot. He doesn’t shy away from using his size and is happy to be active in the physical game, says Kent Norberg, sports director in HV71.
Nyberg comes closest from almost three full seasons in Linköping. There were 14 points in 45 SHL games last season.
– I hope to contribute with a stable defensive and also be a threat in the offensive zone, says John Nyberg himself.
