Jonathan Sigalet leaves Frölunda for private reasons

Frölundabacken leaves for private reasons

Rear Jonathan Sigalet of Frölundas played again yesterday against the Skellefteå.

Now he has left the team and has returned home to Canada.

"Yes, he went home for personal reasons," said Frölundas sports director Fredrik Sjöström.

Canadian forward Jonathan Sigalet of Frölundas, 32, was on the ice when the team returned and headed to Skellefteå with 3-2 last night.

But during ice training today, Sigalet was gone. He traveled to Canada for private reasons, which GT was the first to report.

– Yes, it is true, Frölundas Sports Director Fredrik Sjöström confirms for Sportbladet and continues:

– He went home for personal reasons. That's what it is, it's nothing happened to the ice cream.

Do you know how long he may have left?

– We do not really know when or how he will come back, there have been quick offers here. We take it a little day by day.

"Do not feel stressed about it"

Sjöström also says that it is not appropriate to look for a replacement.

– No, only in this case, we have seven backs, he will be absent for a long time, then consider it. If this transpires, the J20 team also has competent backs. So we are not stressed about it.

The Canadian is an assistant captain of Frölunda and is in his third year in the club.

He contracted the season and scored five points for the first 12 games.

Frölunda meets Malmö on Saturday.
