Modo shows interest in Leksand forward Max Veronneau

Max Veronneau will leave Leksand after the team's relegation from SHL. Allsvenskan side Modo has expressed interest in the Canadian forward, though other clubs are also in the race, reports Expressen. His agent is pushing for a deal in SHL but has yet to secure one.

Max Veronneau, a Canadian forward, is departing Leksand following their drop to HockeyAllsvenskan. His future remains uncertain, but interest from multiple teams has surfaced quickly after the relegation. Expressen reports that Modo, competing in HockeyAllsvenskan, is actively pursuing the player, though they face competition from others. Playing abroad also remains an option for Veronneau. The 26-year-old's contract with Leksand was lucrative, so he is expected to accept a salary reduction wherever he lands next. His production dipped over the past two seasons, with fewer points than earlier in his tenure. Veronneau's agent continues to seek a return to SHL, Sweden's top hockey league, but no agreement has materialized so far. Modo's interest highlights the club's ambition to bolster their roster ahead of the next campaign.
