Linus Omark is presented by Luleå for next season on a two-year contract.
After becoming Swiss champion with Geneve-Servette, the hunt for SM gold continues.
– It means a lot for the collective self-confidence, we hope that he will contribute with magic, says assistant sports director Ulf Engman.
After a season abroad in Geneve-Servette and Detroit Red Wings respectively, Linus Omark and Pontus Andreasson reunite in Luleå.
In addition, the center Juhani Tyrväinen has chosen to stay so that the successful chain from the 2021/2022 season can be back together.
That’s when Luleå lost the SM final against Färjestad after having the lead 3–2 in games and losing the seventh at home.
“Top player in the league”
The way 36-year-old Linus Omark has looked in Luleå and Geneve-Servette the last two seasons, he has several seasons left at the very highest level.
– It is likely that the three players will continue together. Linus Omark still maintains a very high class, we expect him to be a top player in the league in the coming seasons, says Ulf Engman.
Luleå has previously completed the new acquisitions Marcus Hardegård, Örebro, Nikola Pasic, Södertälje, Ludvig Jansson, Södertälje, David Lilja, Bik Karlskoga, Oscar Eklind, Brynäs, Frederic Allard, Montreal Canadiens and Patrik Zdrahal, Litvinov.
Positive for Kempe
What remains in the squad building before the start of the league is another back who will be able to be presented soon.
As for Mario Kempe, the rehabilitation is reported to be going very well.
Luleå tränkar med honom som en av fyra centrar från sämsätsä sammäng med Juhani Tyrväinen, Jack Connolly och Jonas Berglund.
Linus Omark went to Switzerland for one last adventure abroad before the children started school, he is now released from the contract with Geneve-Servette which was for another season.
