Björklöven fires coach Björn Hellkvist.

The Allsvenskan ice hockey club announces this on platform X.

"The decision is based on sporting results. We need to make a change both in terms of play and results," says sports manager Per Kenttä.

Björklöven has dropped to fourth place in Hockeyallsvenskan after three straight losses.

The team will be led by assistant coach Daniel Rahimi and physical trainer Stefan Öhman for the time being.

Four matches remain in the regular season before the playoffs begin.
