Press Release
Lethbridge, AB – The Lethbridge Hurricanes announced that veteran Defenceman Albin Blomqvist has returned home to Sweden.
The 6’3, 202 pound blueliner from Osby was injured in a game in early

Juniors. In his 69 games with the Hurricanes over the past two seasons,
Blomqvist registered 6 points (1G, 5A) and 117 penalty minutes.
