Vimmerby HC clinched their place in the HockeyAllsvenskan for the 2026/27 season by defeating Södertälje SK 2-1 in a shootout during the penultimate regular-season game. The win came as Västerås IK, despite a 3-2 overtime victory over Mora IK, failed to avoid the relegation playoff. Coach Eric Karlsson expressed overwhelming emotion after the match.
Vimmerby HC is reportedly nearing a deal to bring back goalkeeper Tomas Rydén. The 32-year-old, who previously starred for the club, would pair with loaned prospect Isak Sörqvist from Luleå. Nothing is finalized yet, but Rydén has expressed enthusiasm for the move.
