He hesitated for a long time before continuing, but just over a month ago Joakim Lindström chose to sign a new contract with Skellefteå and today he broke the club's all-time scoring record when he scored the 6-2 goal against Linköping in the middle of the third period .
Altogether, there have been 466 points in 481 games for Lindström in the Skellefteåträjän.
The previous record was held by club icon Pär Mikaelsson.
- It's nothing that I thought about like that, but it's clear that once you cross the border, it's always nice, it's something you can look back on later and be proud of, but honestly, it's not such a big thing, says Lindström.
But the record chase was not a major factor when he decided to play another season.
- It wasn't such a big part of it.
It was more about finding motivation and the right energy and strength required for an SHL season, and I think I have that now, says Lindström.
