The track record is long.
Among other things, it has been Olympic silver, Olympic bronze and two Swedish Championship golds - now the former goalkeeper Kim Martin Hasson has also been elected to the Swedish ice hockey Hockey Hall of Fame.
- It has been a while since I stopped playing and it feels like I will be remembered again, says Martin Hasson who is now sports director for Frölunda's women's initiative.
You're the tenth woman to receive the award, what do you think about it?
