Kalmar continues to lose important players for next season, according to reports. Canadian Peter DiLiberatore reportedly chose to leave AHL play for Kalmar ahead of the season. It was reported as a very successful choice by the 25-year-old defenseman.
For Kalmar, which has reportedly challenged Björklöven at the top of the table all season, he reportedly made 36 points including 28 assists. But it will reportedly only be one season in Hockeyallsvenskan and Kalmar. After he finishes the season, where KHC can reportedly go for a surprising promotion to SHL, he is reportedly set for Malmö Redhawks.
The team's highest-scoring defenseman is reportedly set for Malmö Redhawks, according to information to Expressen. According to Expressen's information, it is reportedly Oscar Alsenfelt who has secured the player's signature. They state that Malmö has reportedly followed the defenseman for a longer time.
Earlier during the day, information on social media emerged that DiLiberatore is said to have started following Redhawks on Instagram. Whether Peter DiLiberatore has officially signed with Malmö Redhawks or if it is still in negotiation remains unclear. Whether Kalmar Hockey Club (KHC) will achieve promotion to SHL this season is also unknown.
George Diaco and Eddie Levin are also said to be set for other clubs, so Kalmar reportedly has a rebuild on the offensive side to do for next season. The specific clubs George Diaco and Eddie Levin are reportedly set to join have not been disclosed. For Malmö's part, Robin Salo is reportedly leaving the club according to media reports.
The reason for Robin Salo's reported departure from Malmö Redhawks has not been specified. Whether the Canadian is to be considered a pure replacement remains to be seen.
