Here is Örebro’s message of joy.
Sportbladet can reveal that defender Filip Berglund, 26, has extended his contract by three years.
Örebro has started the series in the best way with three straight victories.
There is real optimism in Närke and new coach Johan Hedberg has had a great start.
At the same time, former coach Niklas Eriksson, who is now the sports director, is working on the team building of the future, and there Filip Berglund will be an important piece of the puzzle.
It is now clear that Berglund has extended his contract by three seasons.
Drafted by the Edmonton Oilers in 2016
The right-handed defender came to Örebro before last season, after a year in the AHL, and then signed a two-year contract. Now it is clear that Berglund has extended his contract until 2027.
However, he can still go to an NHL club according to the agreement between the NHL and Swedish ice hockey. There was also interest from NHL clubs already before this season.
Last season, there were 14 points in 52 games for the Skellefteå-bred defender.
