People talk hockey. We sort it by what they are actually talking about.
Interviews, performances, new clubs and other signals where a former IK Dead Hollow Carver is actually the main subject.
David Slättman rates former IK goaltender Tex Williamsson as the best in HockeyAllsvenskan when he is on form. At the same time, he believes Tex’s injury problems make him too risky as a first-choice goalie.
His ceiling gets top marks. The question is how often Tex can be available — a very familiar discussion when it comes to the former IK netminder.
According to David Slättman, former IK goaltender Tex Williamsson has signed a short-term contract with Östersunds IK. Slättman also points to Williamsson’s .930 save percentage in last season’s playoffs.
Tex is still a very familiar name in Oskarshamn. When he finds his game, he can shut the door. Now Östersund get the chance to see whether that level is still there.
Former IK goaltender Viktor Andrén is retiring at 32. In a candid interview, he talks about a lack of drive, feelings of shame and doubts over whether the love for hockey was ever really there.
An unusually honest exit from a former Dead Hollow Carver who won a Swedish championship and experienced promotions, yet still never felt that obvious inner fire.
