Uncategorized Alcén., Bringing Jakob, Jakob Admin January 30, 2025 0 Comments

det officiellt: Brynäs IF talangfulla spelare har precis kommit tillbaka efter många års avgång….

It was highly expected last week when Jakob Silfverberg of the Anaheim Ducks announced he was leaving the NHL and now it’s official. The Brynäs IF website has announced that the 33-year-old is coming home to the city of Gävle and the club he grew up playing for.

“The dialogue actually started already last summer, that’s when it became serious that I would come home to Brynäs and play,” said Silfverberg. “Since I went over, it has always been there in my mind, but last summer I was in closer contact with (Brynäs IF sports director Johan) Alcén, so it was actually sometime around then that I made the decision that this would be my last season in the NHL.

“Bringing Jakob home of course feels incredibly good and exciting,” said Alcén. “Jakob doesn’t really need any further introduction. What he has achieved during his career speaks for itself. Everyone knows what qualities he possesses both on and off the ice and with his heart for the club, he is invaluable. It is one of our greats who is heading home and he has really been clear from the start that he wants to come home regardless of league affiliation, we are very grateful for the goodwill Jakob has shown to reach this solution on the spot.”
