Earlier Monday, a press release came from Linköping saying that Thursday’s home game against Malmö Redhawks will be canceled for the time being. It was already clear that Tuesday’s game against Luleå would not be played, this due to several crown falls in the team.

– We are currently informed that 24 people with connections to the male team have been diagnosed with infection and we await further information from the tests of four people. Inside the LHC Academy, there are four people with a confirmed infection, says the club’s general manager, Niklas Persson.

They made the decision following a recommendation from the infection control unit in the Östergötland region, and major remediation work will be carried out in the coming days at all facilities used by the LHC.

– Of course it is very sad that we have to make this decision, but with the prevailing circumstances, it seemed obvious to do so. We hope that everyone involved shows understanding and respects the decision, says Johan Krantz, LHC youth manager, on the club’s website.
