Timrå has been responsible for several eye-catching offensive signings ahead of the SHL season, which starts on Saturday.

The crowning achievement was Jonathan Dahlén, who returns after playing in the NHL team San Jose Sharks last season.

That after Lander, among others, persuaded him to come back to the club that he brought up to the SHL.

- Somewhere it is always the person who chooses, but I know that Jonathan enjoys the city and Timrå very well.

It would have been a bit of a misdemeanor if you didn't sit down and have lunch and talk a bit.

I just wanted to share how I felt and what I would think if he came to Timrå, says team captain Lander to SVT Sport.

He develops his feelings about playing with Dahlén.

- He is a fantastic hockey player with a big Timrå heart.

Getting him into the team and personally getting to share a dressing room with him will be a lot of fun.

Opponents are also happy that Dahlén is back in Sweden, even though he is no older than 24 years old.

- It is good for the league.

Profiles and good players that raise interest.

I met Jonathan for the first time when he was 9-10 years old.

He is a fantastic hockey player and it is fun to see his development, says Frölunda legend Joel Lundqvist.

Leksand's captain Patrik Zackrisson thinks that Timrå's investment stands out.

- They are relatively new to the league, but still they get this in.

They go from being tipped for defeat to being top tipped.

There will be a marked difference, he says.
