Hockey Club Lugano announces that it has signed Swedish defender "left" Calle Dahlström with a contract valid for the next two seasons (2024/2026).
Born on January 28, 1995, in Stockholm, Dahlström trained in the youth sector of Djurgardens, making his debut at eighteen in the Swedish top league (SHL) with Linköping.
Drafted in the second round in 2013 by the Chicago Blackhawks, he spent seven years in North America, playing 67 games in the NHL (Chicago Blackhawks, Winnipeg Jets, and Toronto Maple Leafs) and 261 games (84 points) in the AHL, where he wore the jerseys of the Rockford Ice Hogs, Henderson Silver Knights, and Toronto Marlies. In the last championship, he returned to his homeland to defend the colors of Färjestad BK.
Appreciated as a player with good game reading and good passing skills, his profile is that of a solid defensive defenseman, also due to his physical size (193 cm x 96 kg).
At the same time, HCL announces that it has reached an agreement with defender Joey LaLeggia for the consensual termination on April 30, 2024, of the contract valid until the end of the 2024/25 season. The 31-year-old Canadian played thirty-nine Regular Season games with the black-and-white jersey, scoring nine goals and seventeen assists. HCL thanks Joey for the seriousness and professionalism he has always shown and wishes him the best for his future.
These are the words of General Manager Hnat Domenichelli:
"Calle is a defensive defenseman who will have an important role in our team, particularly in the defensive zone and penalty killing. In this context, I want to thank Joey for his commitment during his time in Lugano and wish him all the best for his future."
