What a transfer! Langnau brings in Swedish top scorer Marcus Nilsson
The SCL Tigers have signed Marcus Nilsson, one of the best foreigners in the club’s history. He was the top scorer in the Swedish first division last season and he can shake up our league too.
Yesterday one of the men who occasionally do the SCL Tigers good received a text message from the technician. You should come to Tiger’s office on Sunday from the beautiful Bernese Oberland to Emmental. There is a little news.
For “little news”: The reason for the urgently requested visit: the signing of the contract with Marcus Nilsson. So that the paperwork can be done quickly on Monday.
Tiger President Peter Jakob is a clever man of reason. It’s on the exit brake. Now that soon federal funds will flow even more. But he has a wide network of relationships, larger than the roots of a 300-year-old linden tree, and friends who have completed their fortune training and have a heart for the Emmental and for the cultural heritage of the Emmental: for the SCL Tigers. And now it is the case that with the Swedish defender Erik Brännström one of the three previous foreigners will soon leave the Emmental. So Marcus Nilsson is just a substitute in terms of transfer.
The man in his prime, who is asked to come to the office, is willing to pay for a fourth foreign player. To make the residents of Emmental happy. Who knows, you might get away from last place and even qualify before SC Bern.
The sporting director Marc Eichmann, calm and intelligent, really strong, has made a really impressive move: Marcus Nilsson (29), top scorer in the Swedish league last season. A big number. And when the deal is in the towel, the residents of Emmental will also wonder: How can such a man turn into a tiger and not storm the great SC Bern? Such questions do good to the soul of Emmental and confirm: mir sy ou öpper (“we are also someone”).
Marcus Nilsson scored 12 goals and 42 assists in 50 games last season with a respectable 60 minute penalty. The best season of his career brought him a meager contract in Sochi at the Great Russian KHL. There he fell short of expectations with 2 goals and 4 assists. And so the highly respected Swedish sports newspaper “Sportbladet” informs its readers that Marcus Nilsson is leaving Russia, canceled Färjestad and signed it in Langnau. Langnau sporting director Marc Eichmann confirms the transfer.
The NHL’s Most Spectacular Records
In a way, Marcus Nilsson is kind of a Swedish answer to Chris DiDomenico. Of course, he is not as extravagant as the Canadian that now looks for Gottéron. But the venomous wing flea (171 cm / 79 kg) is a playmaker that spoils and confuses rival defenses on the outside fairways. It can also correct Langnau’s greatest weakness. With a measly evaluation rate of 6.71 percent, the Langnauers have the worst power play in the league – one power play is enough with an 18 percent success rate.
But most of all, it has what it takes to please the crowd. Like Hansueli Mühlethaler on Ice, so to speak. Hansueli Mühlethaler from Unterlangenegg is 170 cm tall and weighs 85 kg, probably the smallest federal crown fighter in modern times and enjoys eternal fame in the Bern area due to his four federal crowns and his final success on the titan. “evil” Ernst Schläpfer in the 1979 cantonal in Lyss.
