@Vancouver Canucks prospect @Linus Karlsson has a new home in the Allsvenskan.
The 20-year-old forward will join BIK Karlskoga and has already played in one game, scoring two assists.

The 6’1″, 179 lb. native of Eksjö, Sweden, was originally drafted by the @San Jose Sharks, but the Canucks acquired his right in a Feb. 2019 deal for F @Jonathan Dahlen.
Dahlen returned to Allsvenskan this season on a loan with Timra IK where he has scored 54 points in 37 games.
