"We have ended up parting ways with Björn. It is of course a difficult and sad decision to part ways with a head coach, but our overall assessment is that the team needs a change to take the next step," sports director Henrik Evertsson tells the ice hockey club's website.
Assistant coaches Joakim Fagervall and Fredrik Hellgren will share the head coaching duties until further notice.
Hellkvist joined Växjö last season.
