During a home game against Skellefteå at Coop Norrbotten Arena in Luleå, Sweden, Luleå Hockey fans reportedly honored player Johanna Fällman with a Darth Vader-themed tribute. The event occurred on the last home game of the regular season, with fans displaying placards featuring Fällman as Darth Vader. Fällman, who has John Williams' 'The Imperial March' as her intro music this season, said it was 'sjukt kul' (extremely fun).

She reportedly changed her intro music for her five-year-old nephew Lucas, who loves Star Wars and Darth Vader, though she noted it's not a song to clap along to. Fällman expressed surprise when she saw the placards after skating out through the 'björngapet' (bear gap).
