2006–07 Frölunda HC season

Swedish ice hockey club season March 2012 2006–07 2006 Frölunda HC Elitserien 9th 22–24–9 12–9–6 10–15–3 167 162 Christer Kellgren Stephan Lundh, later succeeded by Per Bäckman Jonas Johnson Ronnie SundinJonas Esbjörs Scandinavium 11,469 (1st) Steve Kariya (23) Tomi Kallio (36) Tomi Kallio (54) Antti-Jussi Niemi (110) Joel Gistedt (17) Joel Gistedt (2.58) The 2006–07 Frölunda HC season began with many rosters moves. 11 players were lost to other teams or retirement. 7 players were acquired to replace the players that were leaving, most notably Steve Kariya and Martin Cibák. Another two players, Joel Gistedt and Jonas Ahnelöv, were brought up from the juniors. The team's management was confident that they were going to finish in the top as they had done many previous seasons. It didn't take a long time to see that the team would not be the bona fide top team as they had been the previous seasons. Instead it was clear that they would be fighting for a playoff spot. On November 7, after a rough start of the season, head coach Stephan Lundh was relieved of his duties. http://www.frolundaindians.com/notice/notice_read.asp?id=945&typ=arkiv Frölunda Hockey Club har arbetsbefriat Stephan Lundh January 26, 2007 Gyllander Peter November 7, 2006 Frölunda HC Swedish https://web.archive.org/web/20070926221723/http://www.frolundaindians.com/notice/notice_read.asp?id=945&typ=arkiv September 26, 2007 dead On November 8, Per Bäckman was signed from VIK Västerås HK as the new head coach of Frölunda HC. http://www.frolundaindians.com/notice/notice_read.asp?id=946&typ=arkiv Per Bäckman ny tränare för Frölunda Indians January 26, 2007 Gyllander Peter November 8, 2006 Frölunda HC Swedish https://web.archive.org/web/20070926221847/http://www.frolundaindians.com/notice/notice_read.asp?id=946&typ=arkiv September 26, 2007 dead On November 9, assistant coach Calle Johansson decided to resign from his duties due to Lundh's release. http://www.frolundaindians.com/notice/notice_read.asp?id=947&typ=arkiv Calle slutar January 26, 2007 Gyllander Peter November 9, 2006 Frölunda HC Swedish https://web.archive.org/web/20070926221741/http://www.frolundaindians.com/notice/notice_read.asp?id=947&typ=arkiv September 26, 2007 dead Regular season Season standings Elitserien GP W L T PTS GF GA Färjestads BK 55 26 13 16 99 197 145 HV71 55 25 15 15 93 170 150 Modo Hockey 55 24 21 10 85 159 140 Linköpings HC 55 22 19 14 82 151 153 Timrå IK 55 22 21 12 82 129 136 Brynäs IF 55 18 17 20 80 146 137 Luleå HF 55 21 23 11 79 171 163 Mora IK 55 23 23 9 78 147 155 Frölunda HC 55 22 24 9 76 167 162 Djurgårdens IF 55 19 22 14 76 146 148 Skellefteå AIK 55 18 24 13 73 139 178 Malmö Redhawks 55 11 29 15 48 119 174 Game log September #
