Sweden updates Olympic ice hockey roster with injury replacements

Sweden's Tre Kronor has added forward Marcus Johansson and defenseman Hampus Lindholm to its Olympic roster for Milano 2026, replacing injured players Leo Carlsson and Jonas Brodin. This follows the initial 25-player announcement last month.

Building on the roster named by coach Sam Hallam on January 2, Sweden's national ice hockey team, Tre Kronor, has made changes ahead of the Milano Olympics (February 6-22). Forward Marcus Johansson, 35, from the NHL's Minnesota Wild—who was initially edged out—now replaces injured Anaheim Ducks star Leo Carlsson, sidelined by thigh surgery. Johansson, with Malmö ties, has 34 points (13 goals, 21 assists) in 48 games this season.

Defenseman Hampus Lindholm, 32, from Boston Bruins, steps in for Minnesota's Jonas Brodin, who is also out. Lindholm, despite past injuries, has played most games, posting 3 goals, 16 points, and a -10 plus/minus.

The updates were announced on Tre Kronor's X account. Sweden opens against Italy on February 11 in a group with Finland and Slovakia, strengthening the squad blending NHL veterans and young talents.
