HV71 forward Aleksi Heponiemi underwent shoulder surgery after an injury ended his season. The 27-year-old is now focused on a methodical recovery process ahead of the next campaign.
Heponiemi suffered the injury during training last season. What initially seemed minor led to a prolonged absence after initial recovery efforts failed and caused setbacks. He ultimately missed the second half of the year despite early expectations of a two-to-three-week absence.
Forward Elias Ekström has spoken about the injury that ended his 2025-26 season early. The 24-year-old, who joined BIK Karlskoga from Örebro, played just 16 games before being sidelined in November.
