Mora IK sport director Andreas Hägglund expressed hope to keep forward Arvid Degerstedt, whom he called the league's best two-way player, despite interest from SHL clubs. The team endured a disappointing season and plans significant changes, including roster reinforcements. Degerstedt indicated Mora remains an option for his future.
Mora IK concluded a season that fell short of expectations, prompting sport director Andreas Hägglund to outline plans for major roster adjustments. Central to these efforts is retaining forward Arvid Degerstedt, who has attracted attention from SHL teams. Hägglund remains optimistic about extending Degerstedt's contract, praising his skills and character in comments to Mora Tidning: “Det tror jag. Jag tycker att det är ligans kanske bästa tvåvägsspelare. En jävligt bra hockeyspelare och en fantastisk karaktär. Det finns ett SHL-intresse, men blir det inte så, då har vi en bra dialog med Arvid.” After Mora's final match, Degerstedt confirmed no decisions were finalized and that staying with the club was still possible. Hägglund also highlighted the need for more top-end talent, greater skill overall, and younger, developable players. He expressed disappointment in acquisitions Sander Wold and Brayden Tracey, stating of the latter: “Det är en besvikelse. Han har inte varit tillräckligt bra helt enkelt. Han får inte godkänt, varken spel- eller poängmässigt. Men så är det ibland.” Despite numerous expiring contracts, Hägglund aims to secure extensions for Karl Smedberg, Georg Weigelt, and Gustav Salmi-Lilja. Previously, he indicated interest in continuing with defenseman Marcus Karlström, who said: “Jag trivs jättebra.” These moves aim to rebuild Mora for the upcoming campaign.
