Leksand finalizes negotiations with NHL-qualified John Quenneville

The idea is that Leksand will enter the season with 13 forwards.

The club also wants to leave a place if it is the case that one of the players who went to the NHL would not take a place this fall.

Right now you are twelve, and the last place you have now given space for is intended for a real top player who can go into the top of the team.

The club got the nob from Peter Cehlarik in the spring, even though it was very close to a return. Swiss Zug came up with an offer that the Slovak could not refuse.

John Quenneville may be ready next week

Many names have been balled and now you are down to a few names, but a main candidate who stands out and with whom you are in advanced negotiations.

It’s about John Quenneville, most recently in Zurich, with whom final negotiations are taking place. During his only season so far in Europe, he accounted for 37 points in 46 matches in Switzerland for ZSC. Earlier in his career, Quenneville played for the NHL club New Jersey Devils and Chicago Blackhawks.

John Quenneville’s younger brother David, already plays in the SHL for IK Oskarshamn, who beat Leksand this spring in the SM finals of the quarterfinals.

If everything goes according to plan, John Quenneville can be ready for Leksand already next week, according to information to SportExpressen. There are a couple of details left, which are very indicative of being solved.

SportExpressen is looking for Leksand’s sports director Thomas Johansson.
