- There are many good players in Brynäs and I think we can be a really good team already next year.

My philosophy is probably a mixture of Swedish and Finnish hockey, says Mikko Manner in a press release.

Manner is currently in Riga where he is the assistant coach for Finland.

Last week it became clear that Gunnar Ekman and Jennie Brobeck together will be acting club directors together because one is also missing. The sports director's chair is also empty since Michael Sundlöv left. The chairman of the board, Jürgen Lorenz, has announced that he will not stand for re-election.


But with Mikko Manner now taking over as coach, the pieces are starting to fall into place in a wounded association. On June 22, Brynäs IF will hold its annual meeting.
