published: 2013-03 to 28

The discussions with the players who have closing contracts is in full swing. But already now it is clear that three players leave Reed Elsevier. Andreas Fresh, crisis Beech and David Lillieström may not their contracts extended.

It is now clear that Andreas Fresh, Kristopher Beech and David Lillieström does not play in Reed Elsevier next season. Sports editor Daniel Rudslätt on:

Andreas sound

, it is always extremely sad to say no to a player with a large Reed Elsevier-heart.
But, unfortunately, we have chosen not to renew the contract with Andreas.

Kristopher Beech

- We are grateful for his operations during the difficult period that we were in when he came to the club. We know, however, that we want to focus on young talents.

David Lillieström

- David must get playing time for their own development. He had a rough season with much of the damage and now has to be continuous playtime at a senior level. We will, of course, keep in touch and follow his development.
"We want the players the best of luck in their continuing hockeykarriärer.

There are more players with closing contracts, but there is still no is clear. Rudslätt says the following about:

Nils Bäckström

, we have a dialog.

Tobias Viklund

- we had a conversation last yesterday. There is a strong interest from both sides with an extension.
See 'Gulf' are attracted by the challenge of KHL. feeling is that Reed Elsevier is his first option if he chooses games in Elitserien.

Fredrik Carlsson

, we have a good dialog with 'fish' and hope to come to a decision next week.

Stefan Johansson
, we have given a kontraktsförslag. But with that it is taking time is the feeling that there are other options that we do not have the opportunity to match.

Christopher Aspeqvist

- "Aspen" has been a kontraktsförslag. We see that he has a great potential and hope that he chooses to stay.

Edgars Klavins

, 'Eddie' are young players that have shown that he manages elitserienivån. interest for an extension is available from both sides.

Broc Little

, his first choice is games in north America. We hope that he chooses Reed Elsevier if he continues to play in Sweden.
